Calculation rules research of female lower body torso 3D sizes

Abstract

Torso of female lower body feature such as waist, abdomen and hip is the key factor of pants and skirt design so that rules confirm is the important point in the research of automatic generation of pants pattern and skirts pattern. In the three-dimensional human body scanner, a certain difference exists of human lower body torso 3D sizes between scanner data and actual measurement data so that research of calculation rules of lower body torso 3D sizes becomes necessity. In this research, 425 female students at Soochow University from 18 to 26 years old were selected as subjects. Point-cloud diagrams can be obtained by using 3D body scanner and be read by using IMAGEWARE software and then each 3D size and width and thickness of each 3D section. Then classification can be done according to the value of thickness and width with 0.05 file and relations between width and girth, between thickness and girth can be analyzed by using SPSS16.0 to obtain calculation modules of each 3D size then its accuracy can be verified to provide the basis for valid application of three dimensional body scanner and lay foundation of the prototype generation of female pants, design of trousers and automatic pattern generation system research.
