triMirror
Website | Facebook | Twitter | Linkedin
triMirror has developed the first real-time solution in the world that allows the try-on of real clothes on highly customizable avatar bodies, and which allows the user to see where the garment is tight or loose, where it juts out or sags down, and how it behaves when they move around in various ways. It was most recently featured in Forbes, USA Today, TIME, and BBC.
It can be implemented on the web and streamed in real-time from the cloud, on tablets and phones, in-store (even with gesture control and with facial scanning), as well as to streamline the entire supply chain using our 3D CAD design solution. An ecommerce showcase increased conversion rates by 35x and decreased returns by 30%.
Here are some videos showcasing the capabilities, which can be expanded and customized as needed: For ecommerce: Jean Shop integration: https://youtu.be/4s9dpUmHmz0 Real-time website (older version): http://youtu.be/74s-ri8w7yI For in-store: Mobile application: http://youtu.be/k5UQl47d0Wk In-store system with Kinect (in Microsoft 5th Ave NYC store, with Jean Shop): https://youtu.be/lhqEIQKNVzM In-store system with Kinect (in Walden Galleria, with Microsoft, Guess, Gap): https://youtu.be/pMladTwgHoI And for 3D design: Gown: https://youtu.be/drZt75ORF00 Sport outfit: https://youtu.be/6UY7hZT_VhcSuit: https://youtu.be/aqwXpQo2duw. .
