Tailoring Measurements with AI: A Modern Fit for a Traditional Craft
When it comes to customizing the dresses, precision is the key. While the traditional method is far from that efficiency. At tailor shops, customers typically visit there, stand still while the team member takes the measurement because only after that cutting and stitching process can begin. It’s a time-consuming, boring and repetitive task for a customer and employee.
Our client, a renowned tailoring brand, wanted to shift from this traditional method. We buckled up for the challenge, focusing on the area for automation and that was taking measurements.
AI-Powered 3D Measurement App
We created an artificial intelligence (AI) application that uses just two photographs, taken from various angles, to obtain the client’s measurements. Then, without requiring the customer to stand for extended periods of time or the tailor to be physically there, the software creates an exact, 3D-like body model to extract precise measurements.
This solution brought various benefits such as:
- Quick Turnaround:It now only takes seconds instead of several minutes.
- Better Customer Experience:Customers are no longer required to remain motionless while being measured.
- Enhanced Productivity: Workers from different departments were able to concentrate on higher-value duties after being released from repetitive measuring duties.
- Consistency Among Stores:Every store could ensure the same degree of accuracy if measurements were automated and standardized.
