“…1 The workflow of the proposed method manipulate the body model by measurements. Chu et al [7] extended the method using a regression function to model the relation between the body size and the shape. Compared to these example-based methods, our approach uses anthropometry as features to guide modeling.…”

This paper presents an example-guided, anthropometry-based modeling method for creating 3D human body models from users' input of partial anthropometric measurements with a given example dataset. Rather than directly forming a mapping between the partial measurements and the body model, we first estimate a set of chosen 30 measurements from the input based on the example-oriented measurement analysis. We then create an initial 3D model using the example-oriented radial basis function model that maps the set of 30 measurements to the body shape space and is established based on the given examples. We finally refine the 3D model by constrained optimization to create the target body model. Our method has several advantages: (1) the created model is guaranteed to match the input measurements and reflects the shape characteristics of examples; (2) the input requirement is modest, which makes it useful in practice; and (3) the information of both the measurements and examples is fully utilized. We demonstrate the effectiveness, accuracy, flexibility and extensibility of the method by various experimental evaluations and a Kinect-based body customization application.

Personalized design is a current trend in the field of consumer products. It aims to enhance the value added by a product or service by satisfying individual customer requirements. This research proposes a design method for mass personalization of eyeglass frames. Three-dimensional (3D) face models of Taiwanese females aged 18 to 25 were constructed using non-contact scanning technologies. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was applied to reduce data complexity while preserving sufficient data variance. Parametric models based on linear regression and Kriging were developed to correlate the mesh point coordinates of a face model to a set of feature parameters. These models efficiently generate 3D facial geometry approximating to individual users. A design software tool implementing Free Form Deformation (FFD) was introduced to adjust the frame design interactively and to enable real-time design evaluation. This study enhances the practical value of 3D anthropometric data by realizing the concept of humancentric design.

“…The approach progresses through three phases: (1) database construction, (2) statistical analysis, and (3) model generation. In the same time, a number of researchers proposed various methods of parametric modeling [3,21,22,25]. Nonetheless, parametric design is usually applied to small-scale projects such as those found in product design, rather than large-scale endeavors such as architectural design.…”

Early studies in the field of computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacture (CAD/CAM) focused on the effects of digital media on the thought processes of designers; however, research has recently shifted to issues of parametric design and building information modeling (BIM). The objective of this study was to compare the parametric design process with BIM to conventional CAD/CAM without BIM in the development of free-form designs. The result proposes some observational phenomena of comparing the two very common methods of the digital design and fabrication in today's digital era, as a reference for the design practice.
