Patent number: 11995300Abstract: A tool allows a user to create new designs for apparel and preview these designs before manufacture. Software and lasers are used in finishing apparel to produce a desired wear pattern or other design. Based on a laser input file with a pattern, a laser will burn the pattern onto apparel. With the tool, the user will be able to create, make changes, and view images of a design, in real time, before burning by a laser. Input to the tool includes fabric template images, laser input files, and damage input. The tool allows adding of tinting and adjusting of intensity and bright point. The user can also move, rotate, scale, and warp the image input.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2023Date of Patent: May 28, 2024Assignee: Levi Strauss & Co.Inventors: Debdulal Mahanty, Ozgur Taylan Kuzucu, James Barton Sights, Benjamin Bell, Christopher Schultz, Jennifer Schultz

Publication number: 20230340718Abstract: A computer system of a finishing center, such as a mobile finishing center, includes a tool that allows a customer to preview or create new designs for apparel before purchase and before laser finishing. Software and lasers are used in finishing apparel to produce a desired wear pattern or other design. Based on a laser input file with a pattern, a laser will burn or ablate the pattern onto apparel. With the tool, the customer will be able to preview, create, make changes, and view images of a design, in real time, before purchase and burning or ablation by a laser. Input to the tool can include fabric template images, laser input files, and damage input. In an implementation, the customer or another user can also move, rotate, scale, and warp the image input.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 20, 2023Publication date: October 26, 2023Inventors: Benjamin Bell, Debdulal Mahanty, Ozgur Taylan Kuzucu, James Barton Sights, Jennifer Schultz, Christopher Schultz, Jeff Zens

Publication number: 20230051783Abstract: A manufacturing flow of apparel such as jeans uses a laser to finish the products. The products are designed using a digital design tool, where photorealistic previews are generated in three dimensions and two dimensions. Imagery of the products are sent to retailers where customers can order the products, such as online orders. Imagery of the products are sent to factories where the products are finished. Based on the imagery, the factories make adjustments to the processes as needed so that the actual products will have an appearance as in the received imagery. As orders are received by the retailers, the factories can manufacture the desired products on demand, and the products can be delivered to customers.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 8, 2022Publication date: February 16, 2023Inventors: James Barton Sights, Benjamin Bell, Debdulal Mahanty, Ozgur Taylan Kuzucu, Inci Bayraktar Arican, Aykut Aygun
