Abstract:
E-commerce websites offer the convenience to consumers to purchase clothes online. However, they have difficulties imagining how they will look like. To address this problem, we propose a holographic 3D virtual try-on system that provides users a novel experience where they can view garments fitted onto their own personalized virtual body. The garment models are generated from garment images obtained from online shopping websites. Users can animate their dressed virtual body in a real-life scene in augmented reality. We also propose Social Fitme, which provides multiple users an intuitive sharing experience with others. Users can try on clothes with their friends and communicate with each other, thereby giving them the opportunity to make more confident decisions. We conducted a user study to compare our proposed system with an image-only shopping system and validate its effectiveness. We found that Social Fitme can greatly improve the shopping pleasure of users and provide them a more engaging and effective shopping experience. Interactions between users can help them explore new styles, enhance their relationships, and strengthen their social connections.
