[Object] To appropriately produce a product generated by printing on a medium.

[Solving Means] A production management system that manages production of a product generated by executing printing on a medium determines (S104, S114) a recommended condition of processing by an electronic device scheduled to be used for generation of a product, based on processing condition information indicating, for each step of generating the product, a relationship among quality of the product, a type and an installing place of the electronic device that performs at least one step of generating the product, and a recommended condition of processing by the electronic device, the target quality of the product, and the type and the installing place of the electronic device scheduled to be used for generating the product.

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 user's preview may be based upon a two-dimensional image of a wear pattern in a laser input file and, from a set of two-dimensional images of a base garment, create a three-dimensional view of the base garment with the wear pattern.

Systems and methods are described for managing articles. The systems and methods described herein may comprise an example method for manufacturing an article. The systems and methods provides an end-to-end manufacturing value chain as a closed system and feedback loop.

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. Users may collaborate while designing the apparel and designate what items should belong in specific collections.

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 guides how the user is allocating apparel items in the system, including feedback on what the user may like to change.

A system automatically generates apparel collection imagery from user-provided imagery. The user-provided imagery includes images of people wearing one or more garments. The system uses segmenting analysis to analyze the user-provided image to identify locations of the garment. From the locations of the garments, the system can determine which garments from an apparel collection can be used to replace those in the user-provided imagery. The system uses pose estimation on the user-provided imagery and modifies a preview image of a replacement garment from the collection. This modified replacement garment image is used to replace the garment in the user-provided imagery.

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. As the user designs apparel, the system provides feedback as to what designs can be used, such as avoiding technical constraints with their designs.

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 finishing pattern or other design. The system provides three-dimensional previews of their designs on a mannequin, using light projection techniques.

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 provides feedback to the user on how their designs may appear in a virtual store or storefront, such as through virtual reality or augment reality techniques.

The techniques disclosed herein analyze a garment design to create, verify, and package technical specifications usable by a manufacturer to produce a garment. Computer vision technologies are applied to an image of the garment to identify fabrics and other materials, notions such as zippers, buttons, drawstrings, etc., and individual panels that will be cut and sewn together to produce the garment. In some configurations, the identified aspects of the garment are analyzed for inconsistencies, omissions, or other errors. A designer of the garment may be prompted to resolve any errors. The confirmed specifications are then exported to a tech pack that conforms to the standards of a manufacturer, including a bill of materials, a list of panels to be cut, and annotations confirming the intent of the designer. A clothing manufacturer may then use the tech pack to configure machines to produce the garment.
