And OptiTex Created Adam - in 3D
OptiTex announces Adam, the newest version of its 3D male avatar. Adam further simplifies the virtual sampling process, allowing designers and clothing manufacturers to see their designs before initiating production.
Beginning in November, Adam will appear within OptiTex's 3D new Version 10 3D modules and related applications, serving as a complement to Jasmine, the female 3D supermodel and a large family of boy, girl and baby avatars. Adam's feature set significantly expands on the previous versions of OptiTex's 3D male models. Enter thirty key measurements, dozens of body morphs such as muscle tone definition, belly shape and a wide range of postures and you can create an Adam, who will model what clothing will look like on a wide variety of body types before a single pattern is cut.
Adam provides designers with significant advantages, allowing a garment to be reviewed, refined and measured before the first piece is ever cut. Designers can now stage a virtual fashion show for potential investors, without having to create samples of the actual line, saving significant upfront costs.
"Our 3D avatars, Adam and Jasmine, provide our customers with critical competitive advantages," says Ran Machtinger, CEO of OptiTex, Ltd. "Virtually every parameter of the avatars is customizable, allowing designers to see their creations come to life on the screen, virtually eliminating the expense of models and fabric waste and significantly reducing production time."
