The present application discloses a mannequin. The mannequin includes: a torso, upper limbs on both sides of the torso and a yawing device used for regulating the lateral swing of the upper limb being arranged at the joint between the upper limb and the torso. An upper limb fixing seat is arranged at the root of the upper limb. The yawing device includes: a yawing bracket hinged with the top of the upper limb fixing seat and a regulating piece with an inner end movable relative to the bottom of the yawing bracket. The outer end of the regulating piece being fixedly connected with the yawing bracket, and the movement of the regulating piece is used to drive the top of the upper limb fixing seat to swing relative to the yawing bracket, such that the upper limb is driven to swing.

The present invention discloses a structure of a mannequin shoe with improved decorativeness and convenience. The mannequin shoe according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises: a front and rear guide member including a front guide surrounding a toe portion of a mannequin foot, a rear guide surrounding a heel portion of the mannequin foot, and a connecting portion connecting between the front guide and the rear guide as one body, and a side guide member surrounding a left and right side portion and a sole portion of the mannequin foot and worn on the mannequin foot along with the front and rear guide member. Accordingly, the present invention can provide a mannequin shoe with improved decorativeness and convenience including configurations that can have an aesthetic effect of looking like that an actual human shoe is worn on the mannequin when viewed from the outside, that can reduce the manufacturing cost and replacement cost of the mannequin shoe for display, which need to be changed frequently according to the season or fashion, and that can shorten the replacement time.

An automated adjustable mannequin is provided for use as a platform for producing computer generated fashion model clothing displays. The clothing displays may be static photographs or video. The mannequin combines manually adjustable dress forms currently used by seamstresses and clothing designers with three dimensional scanning and photographic technologies. Actual body scan data of a living model may be used to automatically adjust the shape or contours of a dress form in real time to match the size and dimensions of a previously photographed model. The automated adjustments to the mannequin may be made at a rate of one frame at a time or 30 frames per second, where the body-form adapts to changes in the underlying model's movements.

An anthropomorphic test device includes a pelvis member. The pelvis member has a foam core and includes an abdomen region defining a first cavity and a pair of thigh regions extending from the abdomen region. The pelvis member also includes a buttock region positioned below the abdomen region and rearward of the pair of thigh regions. The buttock region defines a buttock cavity separate from the first cavity with the buttock region also defining at least one vent port. The buttock cavity compresses from an open condition to a collapsed condition when the anthropomorphic test device is placed onto a surface for approximating a force applied by a body weight of a human.

A sensor apparatus includes a mannequin to emulate a human body part. The mannequin includes a core that emulates flexibility of a substantially inflexible skeletal portion of the body part, and a pliant covering. The pliant covering includes a pliant three-dimensional surface that emulates contours of an epidermis of the body part, and at least one pliant three-dimensional interior portion to emulate resiliency of a pliant portion of the body part. At least one pressure sensor is arranged between the three-dimensional surface and the core to sense pressure applied against the pliant three-dimensional surface.
