  • Patent number: 10458773
    Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for garment property determination are disclosed. One or more movable portions of a mannequin are adjusted, thereby causing the mannequin to change from a first size to a second size. Signals are received from one or more sensors of the mannequin, and pressure readings applied to at least one location on an exterior surface of the mannequin are determined from the signals. Data that correlates at least a first pressure reading with the first size of the mannequin and that correlates at least a second pressure reading with the second size of the mannequin are stored.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10424009
    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for facilitating a shopping experience that spans multiple display devices of multiple computing devices. Image data for a selected item is obtained from an item catalog. The selected item corresponds to a user selection made via a first computing device. An image of the user is obtained. An image of the selected item is rendered relative to the image of the user on a display of a second computing device. The image of the selected item is generated from the image data.

  • Patent number: 9554096
    Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for implementing a computerized garment photography system are described. A garment is placed on an exterior surface of the mannequin. The mannequin is controllable to assume a series of size combinations via one or more moveable portions of the robotic mannequin. One or more image capture devices capture a plurality of images of the mannequin as the mannequin assumes the size combinations. A fit adjustment mechanism adjusts a placement of the garment on the exterior surface of the mannequin during the automated photography process.
