ANIMATABLE GARMENT EXTRACTION THROUGH VOLUMETRIC RECONSTRUCTION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240346762 titled 'ANIMATABLE GARMENT EXTRACTION THROUGH VOLUMETRIC RECONSTRUCTION

The patent application describes a system for generating an animatable garment from a single image of a person wearing a fashion item. The system creates a 3D mesh representation of the person in a canonical space, determines the pose of the person in the image, matches the pose of the 3D mesh to the person's pose, extracts a portion of the 3D mesh corresponding to the fashion item, and generates an extended reality (XR) item using the extracted portion.

  • System generates an animatable garment from a single image
  • Accesses a monocular image of a person wearing a fashion item
  • Creates a 3D mesh representation of the person
  • Determines and matches the pose of the person in the image
  • Extracts a portion of the 3D mesh corresponding to the fashion item
  • Generates an XR item using the extracted portion

Potential Applications: - Virtual try-on experiences for online shopping - Virtual fashion shows and presentations - Augmented reality gaming and entertainment

Problems Solved: - Simplifies the process of creating animatable garments - Enhances virtual shopping experiences - Allows for realistic virtual fashion presentations

Benefits: - Improved user engagement in online shopping - Enhanced visualization of fashion items - Increased interactivity in virtual environments

Commercial Applications: Title: Virtual Fashion Try-On Technology This technology can be used by e-commerce platforms, fashion brands, and AR/VR developers to enhance the virtual shopping experience, increase user engagement, and create innovative marketing campaigns.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does this technology improve the online shopping experience? 2. What are the potential limitations of using this system for generating animatable garments?


Original Abstract Submitted

methods and systems are disclosed for generating an animatable garment from a single image. the system accesses a monocular image depicting a person wearing a fashion item and generates a three-dimensional (3d) mesh representing the person in a canonical space. the system determines a pose of the person depicted in the monocular image and modifies a pose of the 3d mesh to match the determined pose of the person. the system extracts a portion of the 3d mesh corresponding to the fashion item and generates an extended reality (xr) item using the extracted portion of the 3d mesh.
