Fit to Deformation

Fit to Deformation

Systems for deformation analysis are heavily used in automobile and material industries. Such systems are used for the sizing, stress testing and optimization of components. The aim of the project is to develop and deploy a contactless optical deformation analysis system. Our special interests are the capturing of largely deforming materials such as textiles. Through the combination of multi camera systems, state-of-the-art machine vision algorithms, just-in-time analysis and highly interactive, rich visualizations, we want to advance the field of custom-made garments and textile function testing. On top of that, the project offers numerous research opportunities in more general areas such as computer graphics, animation, bio mechanics, and computer vision.

The project is a collaboration between HTW Dresden, the Institute for Computer Graphics at TU Braunschweig, and the Institute of Textile Machinery and High Performance Material Technology at TU Dresden. Our Partners from the Industry are the well-known sports clothing manufacturer adidas AG as well as the leading provider of flight inspection systems, Aerodata AG.
