Virtual Try-out for clothing and 3D clothing collection Using AR/VR. Can anyone develop such apps in PTC product like Thingworx and plug it for webstream to use realtime for apparel or clothing.

 

Please let me know if anyone aware of such use case or implementation which can be feasible in any PTC product and plug in thingworx for realtime use of AR.

If you have a pre-build car model, and you can pre-define the color of the AR car and show it dynamically. But if you're talking about putting clothes or coverings for any live video of human, that's hard.

 

We have model targets in Vuforia, it can detect object in certain angle and put something over it, such as a cloth on human. But if the angle change, the covering cloth will disappear.  Currently a lot of mobil apps can do much better than this, such as change hair color and put a glass on, the image can follow user's head movement.

 

So yes, please check if Vuforia engine can do anything.

Yeah, i have to try realtime human as object to try different cloths from library to choose and show while human make pose in video.

I saw multiple application created by Unity 3D with Vuforia which do this task. I need to check full tutorial for this.

Example : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HHdEZT5miaQ

But as its would be different application all together which nothing to do with Thingworx. 

 

Actually i was looking any use case were we can use or plug such application to thingworx.

 

Thanks for the insights

Currently not I'm aware of. TWX is a 2B product in Manufacturing industry, your request is 2C. And PTC Creo can design color for machines and plastics, but it's not good enough for clothing, so 3D model from Creo will not work for your business. 

 

A special modeling application for clothing is your first priority, and then a motion detection application, these are currently not available in PTC.
