Abstract
According to the present invention there is provided a method of projecting images of sewing patterns as templates onto fabrics. The contemplated application for the invention includes sewist making an article of clothing. As such, images of the patterns to be sewn are stored in a storage device for latter access from a computing device that sends them to a projecting device for projection. The projecting devices is then positioned, graduated, calibrated, and set for optimizing the cutting of the fabric. Thereafter, the operator may interactively modify the projected image, and as such initiates the cutting of the fabric, in accordance to the projected sewing patterns.
Claims20
A method of projecting a sewing pattern onto a cutting fabric, the method comprising the steps of:
- providing a sewing pattern having one or more contours on a computing device to a projecting device for projecting the one or more contours onto a cutting fabric;
- placing a cutting fabric on an appropriate surface;
- positioning, calibrating, and setting up the projecting device to project the one or more contours through the projecting device;
- triggering the projection device to project a projection of the one or more contours onto the cutting fabric;
- cutting the cutting fabric in accordance with the one or more contours of the sewing pattern.
A system of projecting a sewing pattern onto a cutting fabric, the system comprising:
- a sewing pattern having one or more contours where the one or more contours are provided on a computing device;
- a projecting device for projecting the one or more contours;
- the computing device comprising a control unit, where the control unit calibrates and sets up the projecting device to optimize the projection of the one or more contours on the cutting fabric.
A system of projecting a sewing pattern onto a cutting fabric comprising
- a sewing pattern provided on a computing device having a projecting device where an augmented reality device of the computing device generates or modifies one or more contours of the sewing pattern and projects the one or more contours through the projecting device onto a cutting fabric where the one or more contours for cutting the cutting fabric relative the one or more contours.
