Abstract
A system allows a user to create new designs for apparel and preview these designs before manufacture. Software and lasers are used in finishing apparel to produce a desired wear pattern or other design. The system swaps garments in a digital asset to garments that are designed using the system.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- generating a preview image on a computer screen of a first garment with a finishing pattern that is represented by a data file, wherein the generating comprises
- providing a base image of a garment without the finishing pattern,
- generating an adjusted base image from the base image without the selected finishing pattern,
- generating a pattern mask based on the data file associated with the selected finishing pattern,
- for a pixel at a pixel location of the garment preview image, obtaining a first contribution by combining a first value associated with a pixel of the pattern mask at a pattern mask pixel location that corresponds to the pixel location of the garment preview image and a value of a pixel of the base image at a base image pixel location that corresponds to the pixel location of the garment preview image,
- for the pixel at the pixel location of the garment preview image, obtaining a second contribution by combining a second value associated with the pixel of the pattern mask at the pattern mask pixel location that corresponds to the pixel location of the garment preview image and a value of a pixel of the adjusted base image at an adjusted base image pixel location that corresponds to the pixel location of the garment preview image,
- combining the first contribution and second contribution to obtain a combined value for the pixel at the pixel location of the garment preview image, and
- displaying the pixel of the garment preview image as a color on the computer screen, wherein the color of the pixel corresponds to the combined value;
- receiving an input document, wherein the input document comprises a plurality of existing customer imagery of garments;
- identifying the first garment as being similar to a garment of the plurality of existing customer imagery of garments;
- and
- replacing in the existing collection image a garment of the plurality of garments identified as being similar with the first garment to obtain an output document.

- for the pixel at the pixel location of the garment preview image, obtaining a second contribution by combining a second value associated with the pixel of the pattern mask at the pattern mask pixel location that corresponds to the pixel location of the garment preview image and a value of a pixel of the adjusted base image at an adjusted base image pixel location that corresponds to the pixel location of the garment preview image,
- combining the first contribution and second contribution to obtain a combined value for the pixel at the pixel location of the garment preview image, and
- displaying the pixel of the garment preview image as a color on the computer screen, wherein the color of the pixel corresponds to the combined value;
- receiving an existing collection image, wherein the existing collection image comprises at least one of a Web page, digital look book, brochure, pamphlet, catalog, or handout;
- identifying the first garment as being similar to a garment of the plurality of existing customer imagery of garments;
- and
- replacing in the existing collection image a garment of the plurality of garments identified as being similar with the first garment to obtain an output collection image.

- generating a pattern mask based on the data file associated with the selected finishing pattern,
- for a pixel at a pixel location of the garment preview image, obtaining a first contribution by combining a first value associated with a pixel of the pattern mask at a pattern mask pixel location that corresponds to the pixel location of the garment preview image and a value of a pixel of the garment base image at a base image pixel location that corresponds to the pixel location of the garment preview image,
- for the pixel at the pixel location of the garment preview image, obtaining a second contribution by combining a second value associated with the pixel of the pattern mask at the pattern mask pixel location that corresponds to the pixel location of the garment preview image and a value of a pixel of the adjusted base image at an adjusted base image pixel location that corresponds to the pixel location of the garment preview image,
- combining the first contribution and second contribution to obtain a combined value for the pixel at the pixel location of the garment preview image, and
- displaying the pixel of the garment preview image as a color on the computer screen, wherein the color of the pixel corresponds to the combined value;
- receiving a collection image comprising a plurality of images of garments;
- identifying a subset of garment preview images generated by the garment previewing tool of garments that are similar to the images of garments in the collection image;
- and
- replacing the identified similar images of garments in the collection image with the subset of garment preview images to obtain an output collection image, wherein the subset of garment preview images comprises a preview image of the first garment.
