Virtual Try-On Rendering Profiles for Faster Product Configuration
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Configuring the rendering engine of virtual try-on (VTO) systems for new products is time-consuming and tedious due to the need for fine-tuning a large number of rendering parameters.
Innovation Solution
A graphical user interface (GUI) with preset controls allows users to select predefined profiles for rendering parameters, enabling efficient configuration of VTO systems by starting from approximate values that can be further adjusted for a desired result.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Manufacturing precision
If the rendering engine is configured by fine-tuning a large number of rendering parameters, then the product configuration accuracy is improved, but the time required for configuration increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by providing pre-configured rendering parameter profiles that have been prepared in advance for different product types. These profiles contain pre-determined rendering parameters that can be directly applied, eliminating the need to manually fine-tune all parameters from scratch. The system stores multiple profiles with different rendering characteristics (e.g., matte, glossy, natural) that are ready to be selected and applied, significantly reducing configuration time while maintaining accuracy.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements parameter changes by allowing users to select from predefined sets of rendering parameters rather than adjusting individual parameters manually. The system provides different profile types with pre-optimized parameter combinations, and users can switch between these profiles or make selective adjustments to specific parameters within a profile, rather than configuring the entire parameter set from scratch.
2Manufacturing precision
If multiple rendering parameters are manually adjusted, then the rendering quality is improved, but the complexity of operation increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies merging by combining multiple rendering parameters into unified profiles. Instead of requiring users to adjust numerous individual parameters separately, the system groups related parameters into coherent profiles that represent complete rendering configurations. Each profile encapsulates a set of parameters that work together to achieve a specific rendering style, simplifying the user interface and operation while maintaining rendering quality.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent uses preliminary action by pre-configuring rendering parameter profiles with optimal values for different product types. These profiles are prepared in advance with carefully tuned parameters, so users don't need to manually adjust each parameter. The pre-configured profiles provide a solid foundation that maintains high rendering quality while requiring minimal user intervention.
3Productivity
If pre-configured profiles are used, then the configuration speed is improved, but the flexibility to customize is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies segmentation by allowing users to selectively adjust individual parameters within a pre-configured profile rather than requiring complete manual configuration. The system divides the configuration process into two levels: selecting a complete pre-configured profile for rapid setup, and optionally fine-tuning specific parameters within that profile. This segmented approach maintains both speed and flexibility by letting users apply presets for most parameters while keeping the option to customize specific aspects.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements dynamics by making the configuration system adaptable to user needs at different stages. The system dynamically adjusts between using pre-configured profiles (for speed) and allowing manual parameter adjustment (for customization). Users can start with a pre-configured profile and then selectively modify specific parameters based on their requirements, creating a dynamic configuration process that balances speed and flexibility.
