Description

[0001] Online shopping application that provides product experience with virtual reality

[0002] TECHNICAL FIELD

[0003] The invention relates to an online shopping application that combines fashion and virtual reality applications, which generally allows users to try the products they want to buy with virtual reality on an avatar created before purchasing them.

[0004] PRIOR ART

[0005] Today, e-commerce has become very common with the developing technology. People can now buy products online instead of going to stores. Although shopping without going to the stores makes human life easier, it can cause disappointment after purchasing the products without trying them. For example, the size of the clothes may not fit or may not be as seen in the photo. In this case, the purchased products may need to be returned, which can put people in a very troublesome process.

[0006] In e-commerce applications used in the state of the art, only products are generally sold. Users shop with the e-commerce application before they can experience the products sufficiently. Users buy clothes, shoes and similar fashion products without seeing how they will look on them, that is, without experiencing the products.

[0007] As a result of a research conducted in the prior art, the application numbered TR2022 / 016384 and titled CLOTHING SIMULATION was found. The abovementioned application relates to a system that shows which size the individual should prefer and how he / she will look with the items he / she buys in order to eliminate the disadvantages experienced in online shopping, due to the fact that the needs of individuals such as clothes, shoes and accessories that they buy online are large or small in size and the individual does not fit them in style. In this system, it is aimed to eliminate the disadvantages experienced with online shopping. However, only the reference sizes of the person are entered here and the body is estimated. It is not possible to create an avatar in the person's own body with the photos uploaded by the person and to try the product to be purchased through the avatar in 3D with this system. These disadvantages experienced with online shopping cannot be completely eliminated with the system described in the application.

[0008] As a result; developments are made in the online shopping applications, therefore new configurations are required in order to eliminate abovementioned disadvantages and bring solution to current systems.

[0009] AIM OF THE INVENTION

[0010] The invention relates to an online shopping application that provides product experience with virtual reality which fulfills the abovementioned requirements, eliminates all disadvantages and brings some additional advantages.

[0011] The main aim of the invention is to reveal an online shopping application that combines fashion and virtual reality applications, which generally allows users to try the products they want to buy with virtual reality on an avatar created before purchasing them.

[0012] Another aim of the invention is to enable users to experience the products by showing them how the products they will buy will look on them.

[0013] Another aim of the invention is to eliminate the negativities experienced with online shopping.

[0014] In order to realize all the advantages mentioned above and which will be understood from the detailed description below, the invention is an online shopping application that combines fashion and virtual reality applications, allowing users to try the products they want to buy with virtual reality before purchasing, comprising an avatar creator, which processes the photos uploaded by the users by taking them instantly with the camera of the smart device on which the shopping application is installed, or by selecting them from the gallery of the smart device to create their membership information, calculates the user's body measurements such as face, neck, arm, leg, hip or shoulder as a result of this process, compares the measurements it calculates with the human body samples in a database within the shopping application, in case it detects a match between the measurements calculated as a result of the comparison and the body samples in the database, matches this sample with machine learning and creates a virtual view of the person in real dimensions, a trial unit that allows users to try the products they want to buy on their virtual skins created by the avatar creator, a sales unit that allows users to purchase products.

[0015] The structural and characteristic features of the present invention will be understood clearly by the following drawings and the detailed description made with reference to these drawings. Therefore, the evaluation shall be made by taking these figures and the detailed description into consideration.

[0016] DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0017] In this detailed description, the preferred embodiments of the online shopping application that provides product experience with virtual reality is described only for clarifying the subject matter in a manner such that no limiting effect is created.

[0018] The invention is an online shopping application that provides product experience with virtual reality, comprising an avatar creator, which processes the photos uploaded by the users by taking them instantly with the camera of the smart device on which the shopping application is installed, or by selecting them from the gallery of the smart device to create their membership information, calculates the user's body measurements such as face, neck, arm, leg, hip or shoulder as a result of this process, compares the measurements it calculates with the human body samples in a database within the shopping application, in case it detects a match between the measurements calculated as a result of the comparison and the body samples in the database, matches this sample with machine learning and creates a virtual view of the person in real dimensions, a trial unit that allows users to try the products they want to buy on their virtual skins created by the avatar creator, a sales unit that allows users to purchase products. Here, firstly, membership is created by logging into the application that is the subject of the invention. In order to complete the profile information of the person during membership creation, people can take and upload photos with the camera of the smart device on which the application is installed or upload the photos they choose from the gallery of the smart device. The uploaded photo is processed with the avatar creator in the mobile application and the person's avatar is created. The avatar creator calculates the person's body measurements such as face, neck, arms, legs, hips and shoulders and compares the calculated measurements with the human body samples in the database in the mobile application. In case it detects a match between the measurements calculated as a result of the comparison and the body samples in the database, it matches this sample with machine learning and creates a virtual view of the person in real dimensions. The created avatar, that is, the virtual view, is fixed in the profile of the person.

[0019] On the other hand, like consumers, sellers create their own virtual stores by creating a membership in the mobile application and uploading the products they want to sell. Here, sellers must upload their products in 3D to the stores they create. If the sellers cannot upload their products in 3D, a 3D virtual view of the product can be created via the mobile application.

[0020] In the shopping application that is the subject of the invention, users can see the products they want to buy during online shopping live on the created avatar and can shape their shopping preferences accordingly. In addition, it will be possible to examine the products by placing them in the environment where the users are located, using "AR” with the help of the inventive shopping application.

[0021] In alternative applications of the invention, users have the option of posting, sharing combinations, messaging, liking, sharing or commenting on combinations and statuses on social media via the shopping application. Here, users can create their own combinations by selecting the products in the shopping application, and other users can purchase these combinations. At the same time, with an option such as "choose your style", which is selected while creating the combination, the person chooses the environment for which he or she creates the combination. For example; when the person chooses the sports combination, the combination he / she has made is included in this category, and other users can examine and buy the combinations created when they select the sports combination category in the "discover" section. At the same time, the shopping application can offer style suggestions to the user by calculating the user's body sizes and behaviors with machine learning. Users can purchase the recommendations given.
