Boys dressing robots, cost less than 10,000-fitting robot, 3D-IT information Boys dressing robots, cost less than 10,000 yuan

Do not know if you have such problems? Online shopping clothes, most afraid of the size inappropriate, wanted to back trouble. Recently, Zhejiang University a students team solution has this plagued, in graduated quarter, they design making out has a hundred variable "models"--try clothing robot (boys version), stores can with it build 3D try clothing between: you will measurements reported to stores,, data entered computer Hou, "try clothing robot" on will deformation, and you of figure synchronization, for you try clothing and three dimensional rendering.

Dressing robots

A few days ago, this reporter learned that, this "cow design," one of the core members of the research and development team, is a student of Wenzhou, his name is Benji. Industrial design is its second major, but with the interest in his "play" out of the name.

Or a sportsman, or have a beer belly

Benji, 22 years old, people in lucheng district, Wenzhou middle school graduated from high school, is currently a senior student of Zhejiang University, enrolled in electrical engineering and automation majors, majoring in industrial design II.

A few days ago, the "fitting the robot" as his second major work, appears on the Zhejiang University industrial design exhibition of graduation works.

This "model" Standing about 1.5 metres, shell made up of 12 large, earlier respectively, right front, left front, right before attacking midfielder, left attacking midfielder, right hip, left front hip. Back is also corresponds to part 6. At present, the "he" was only the upper body, legs.

Due to the robot as far away as Hangzhou, Benji was passed to reporters a demonstration video.

In front of the fitting requires computer system, enter the measurements data, robots, 12 shells then move, it took 35 seconds, shows a man made of data out.

Continues to change, slowly increase the waistline, and bulging waist and abdomen in a blue sweater, and a moment later, a man appears with a big beer belly, clothes seem small. Changed again "fitting robot" Cup size increases with the bust, a strong image of the man show.

Using 3D techniques to reduce costs

Shiller said, initially developed by idea, is because at this system online from abroad, but a luxury, a single price is very expensive. Later, Tsinghua University also produced a version, but only the robot itself, there is no network service system. "We are doing better than them, you can make the network application. "Benji says.

Team a total of 7 members come from different professions, but was design for the students of class innovation of Zhejiang University, Zhou Aobo Benji and classmates, serve as the robot's core research and development work. "Our Division of labour is such that if the robots are people, weeks OBO responsible for bones and shape, made a static model, I am responsible for meridians and the brain, robots move. "Benji says, to build this robot altogether spent more than two months, the robot's shell from their hand-made interior made from a variety of precision small motors, connecting devices through the data cable connected to the processor.

Reporters on the Search website, a sophisticated fitting robot, priced at about 200,000 yuan. And "zhe" fitting robot, typically costs less than 10,000 yuan, and this is how to do it?

Shiller said, using 3D printing technology is the main cause of low cost. Exactly d print devices, so the robot formed most of the connections are made with 3D printing, to ensure accuracy, and can support. These joints, if handed over to the factory with a metal Polish, were time consuming and the cost will be very high.

Girls gave the next build

In order to better reflect the applicability of Benji they also designed online application Web page, in order to improve commercial value.

Shiller introduces robots are just prototypes, was officially put into use, also needs to be improved. At present, there are many businessmen came to discuss, and called for cooperation in the production, it was also offered to buy patented technology. Merchants the highest bid? Benji laughed, he said there is still said inconvenient.

Online shopping clothing girls is the main, of Zhejiang University, "fitting the robot" series, the next step, plans to develop girls ' version.

However, the baton may be governed by Benji's next, studied in boys and girls through.

Seniors facing imminent graduation, Shiller said, more than half the team members, choose to go abroad for further study. Benji will go to United States, Cornell University, in a PhD in human-computer interaction projects, while the other cast members weeks OBO, will go to the United States studying for a master's degree at the University of Pennsylvania.

"While in a foreign country, but if the next team to have any questions, need help, you can always call us," Shiller said, "making graduation works of that time, really full, expect every quarter of seniors graduating, youth can create their own Memorial. ”
