How to buy perfectly fitting jeans online without physical fitting?

The Imigize service has successfully tested its virtual fitting algorithm on clothes.

Samples of jeans and shirts were scanned at Imigize Industrial Measurement Center using patented 3D direct internal volume measurement technology.

The test buyers were scanned with a 3D scanner.

Imigize’s algorithm accurately sorted the right size from a range of denim pants and shirts for each of the buyers. Control physical fitting confirmed the success of the results.

The ability to digitize the internal volume of clothing in 3D format and 3D body scanning technology open up new horizons for the Imigize service in the trillions dollar worth clothing market.

Over the past year, due to the Covid pandemic, the apparel and footwear industry has faced an urgent need to rethink its sales format, with an emphasis on online, but the issue of choosing the right size without physical fitting remains a major challenge for e-commerce.

The new generation of Imigize Service

Imigize announces the release of the second generation of a contactless shoe fitting service for online shopping.

On a test group of users, the new release of the algorithm showed high accuracy of recommendations, significantly exceeding the results of the previous generation of the algorithm.

An important innovation is that the new generation of the service is able to distinguish the materials from which the shoes are made, which allows us to show more correct recommendations.

This level of accuracy of the virtual fitting opens up great opportunities for the online sale of shoes and clothes.

For registered users, the service can significantly save time in the store, immediately recommending a suitable shoe size. The user can check the availability in the shoe store of the size he needs and go already for a guaranteed purchase.

For online purchases, the Imigize service offers the class more precise recommendations for the size and comfort of shoes (based on data on the internal 3D volume of shoes and 3D models of the user’s feet) than attempts to predict the appropriate size based on previous purchases of other brands.

Over 12 months of intensive work, the team has significantly improved the methods of measuring shoes and feet of users, significantly redesigned the architecture of the algorithm and AI (Artificial Intelligence) modules.

In addition to higher accuracy of recommendations, the speed of the algorithm increased 4 times.

So for a new user, the time after scanning feet using a scanner or mobile application (Beta version) before showing a recommendation for a suitable shoe size is less than 30 seconds.

For an already registered user with previously made feet scans, recommendations of a suitable size are displayed immediately in real time.

The second generation of the algorithm takes into account a wider list of comfort parameters, all types of shoes with laces and low-heeled shoes without laces, regardless of the materials of manufacture.

Dear investors and everyone who supports Imigize.

Based on the latest results of activity, we prepare the calculations of the economy of the token and are ready to provide these documents to interested in cooperation funds.

As a guarantee for our investors we are launching the process of registering our token in accordance with SEC USA requirements.
