Abstract

See full text

A method for mapping wearer mobility includes identifying common usage patterns and usage positions by the garment wearer, attaching markers used in motion capture photography to the bare skin of a test subject, and recording position and movement data of the test subject with a computer system while the test subject repeats the common usage patterns and usage positions. The position and movement data are processed to create an opportunity map which identifies stretch and compression areas of the test subject. Markers are attached to a garment worn by a test subject, and position and movement data are recorded while the test subject repeats the common usage patterns and usage positions. The data are analyzed to create a problem map which identifies stretch and compression areas of the garment. A mobility map is created based on the opportunity map and problem map that creates a garment design that reduces compression and stretch areas.
