Wondering how you would look wearing your favourite celebrity\'s outfits? Scientists have developed a new four-dimensional (4D) scanning system that can capture clothing on moving people, turn it into a 3D digital form and dress your virtual avatars. The virtual \'try-on\' system, called ClothCap, can see how the fabric moves and how it fits before a person buys an outfit, researchers said. 

Berlin : Wondering how you would look wearing your favourite celebrity's outfits? Scientists have developed a new four-dimensional (4D) scanning system that can capture clothing on moving people, turn it into a 3D digital form and dress your virtual avatars. The virtual 'try-on' system, called ClothCap, can see how the fabric moves and how it fits before a person buys an outfit, researchers said.

Traditional virtual clothing try-on involves getting the 2D clothing pattern from the manufacturer, sizing this to a body, and simulating how the clothing drapes on the body. The new technique replaces garment simulation with garment capture. Capturing and transferring existing garments to new people greatly simplifies the process of virtual try- on. ClothCap computes the body shape and motion under clothing while separating and tracking the garments on the body as it moves.
