一套衣物搭配的即時互動系統

Abstract

近幾年來，衣服成了個人品味的表徵。因此許多人會花上一段時間在鏡子前面好好地挑選合適的搭配衣服。然而，要找到好的搭配並不是一件容易的事。 其中的一個原因是許多人不知道如何搭配衣服。為了解決這個問題，我們提出了一套互動系統，並稱之為 ChroMirror。這套系統可以即時地顯示使用者的影像，並且會將使用者身上的衣服顏色改變成為和諧的顏色，目的是在幫助使用者學習顏色和諧的衣服搭配。這個經驗就像是身處在一家提供各類顏色衣服的服飾店裡面一樣。這套系統長遠的目標是鼓勵使用者去體驗各種不同和諧顏色的衣服，並從中學習如何搭配衣服的顏色。 第二個原因是，透過試穿衣服來找到合適的搭配是非常消耗時間和體力的事。為了解決這個問題，我們提出另外一套系統，並稱之為 Dress Mirror。這套系統會即時地顯示使用者試穿衣服的模擬畫面，目的是在幫助使用者很快地瀏覽各種不同衣服的試穿預覽以及搭配的效果，而無須實際上的穿脫衣服。這個方法類似於傳統的紙娃娃換衣服遊戲。這套系統長遠的目標是鼓勵使用者嘗試各種不同的衣服和搭配，並且藉由試穿預覽來節省搭配衣服的時間。 透過兩個系統的使用者測試我們也發現，使用者認為即時的試穿效果預覽(包含衣服顏色的改變和衣服本身的改變)在決定如何搭配時是有幫助的。

Nowadays, our dressing style reflects our personal tastes. Many of us often spend a considerable amount of time in front of a mirror to decide what to wear. However, it is not an easy task to find proper matches. The first reason is that shoppers need some more knowledge of how to match. To solve this problem, we present a digital mirror system, the ChroMirror system, reflecting real-time images of people and digitally adjusting their clothing color, in order to help them improve dressing color harmony. This process is similar to that in clothing stores which provide customers with the same style of clothing in different colors. A long-term goal is to use the ChroMirror system to encourage people to experiment with more colorful and harmonic clothing colors. The second reason is that it is time and effort consuming to physically change garments. To solve this problem, we provide another digital mirror system, Dress Mirror, rendering the simulation trying on previews, for helping people easily and playfully explore different clothing combinations without actually change their clothing. The approach is similar to the traditional paper doll game. A long-term goal is to use the Dress Mirror system to encourage people to experiment with various kinds and styles of clothing. Our user study results reveal that users find it useful to provide real-time mirroring trying-on system when deciding which garment to wear.
