Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The project presented in this paper focuses on the disgitisation of the clothing product development process incorporating 3D body scanning, automatic pattern generation, visualization, digital printing and embroidery. The aim was to introduce custom print and embroidery to the existing Bodymetrics Digital Couture offer in two London retail stores. The first objective of this project was to extend the couture jeans offer in Selfridge's, and the second objective to introduce customizable suit linings for Nutters in Harrods. The current data flow with the inherent processes is described and a detailed account of the research is given in two stages and illustrated with examples of the use of digital print and embroidery in each case. A description is given of the steps constituting the first stage, which involved the consumer in print and embroidery selection and the automatic extraction of his or her measurements from which a prepared pattern was produced. An engineered print was visualized on a 3D virtual image of the customer, before being cut and manufactured. For stage two of the work an account is given of the methods used for re-proportioning imagery to automatically fit different pattern sizes. The problems of CAD workflow, fabric stability during the printing process, and print registration during single ply cutting for each case are outlined, together with a summary of progress and outstanding issues.

Download or read book Design for Personalisation written by Iryna Kuksa and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-05-18 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The principle of personalisation appears in a range of current debates among design professionals, healthcare providers and educationalists about the implications of new technologies and approaches to consumer sovereignty for 'mass' provision. The potential of new technologies implies systems of provision that offer bespoke support to their users, tailoring services and experiences to suit individual needs. The assumption that individual choice automatically increases wellbeing has underlain the re-design of public services. Ubiquitous personalisation in screen-based environments gives individuals the sense that their personality is reflected back at them. Advances in Artificial Intelligence mean our personal intelligent agents have begun to acquire personality. Given its prevalence, it is appropriate to identify the scope of this phenomenon that is altering our relationship to the 'non-human' world. This book presents taxonomy of personalisation, and its potential consequences for the design profession as well as its ethical and political dimensions through a collection of essays from a range of academic perspectives. The thought-provoking introduction, conclusion and nine chapters present a well-balanced mixture of in-depth literature review and practical examples to deepen our understanding of the consequences of personalisation for our professional and personal lives. Collectively, this book points towards the implications of personalisation for design-led social innovation. This will be valuable reading for professionals in the design industry and health provision, as well as students of product design, fashion and sociology.

Download or read book The Digital Bespoke written by ginger coons and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-11-29 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Digital Bespoke? is about mass customization, 3D printing, human bodies, and the step towards digitally built objects made to individual specifications. The author argues that the modes of customization offered by digital fabrication and mass production have more in common with their industrial predecessors than with craft-based customization. Using case studies of historical and current practices from Europe, Africa, and North America to ground her theory, she investigates where digital fabrication technologies have developed from and how their uses differ from existing modes of production. Digital fabrication and mass customization are concepts encompassing broad ecosystems of technologies and practices. Both are increasingly implemented and hyped. As such, it is imperative to address not just their potential, but their challenges. Written for a scholarly audience and for design practitioners concerned with the social and political impacts of digital fabrication and mass customization, this book will be a useful reference point for students and researchers in digital and analogue design, technology, and material culture.
