  • Tool for design and fabrication of knitted components
    Patent number: 11913149
    Abstract: Computer based systems and methods for designing and manufacturing consumer products, including knit footwear uppers, and the like. The system provides digital controls for the customization of knitted components, including complex multi-structured knitted components. The system simulates deformations of knit structures and allows the user to control and visualize compensations in the structure(s) of the knitted component to better match between an intended knit design and the actual physical knitted component outcome. The system may manufacture/fabricate a knitted component based on the predicted/estimated deformation behavior of the knit.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 7, 2022
    Date of Patent: February 27, 2024
    Assignee: NIKE, Inc.
    Inventors: Ayelet Karmon, Shoval Nir, Tom Shaked, Eyal Sheffer, Yoav Sterman
