The second mapping unit 150 applies clothing design patterning data to a virtual model to solidify the data. In addition, the virtual model modeled by the second mapping unit 150 further includes a fashion show unit 160 that implements a fashion show at a preset location.

The design inspiration unit 110 extracts image data related to various themes and concepts from a database and visually outputs the extracted image data. The design inspiration unit 110 receives the keyword and extracts image data corresponding to the keyword from the database. Here, the image data includes various photographic data.

For example, image data refers to various photo data such as a background photograph, a small photograph, a pattern photograph, and a material photograph of clothes. In the present invention, the image data is not limited to any one and can be added, deleted or modified. The present invention includes a database in which various image data are stored, and can output image data corresponding to a keyword after inputting a keyword through the design inspiration unit 110. [ As a result, users without prior knowledge of clothing design, fashion image or theme can easily extract and output image data.

The first mapping unit 120 generates clothing design concept data by image mapping the image data output through the design inspiration unit 110 by inputting a keyword. Here, the clothing design concept means various output items that are visually output. The first mapping unit 120 maps the image data and a plurality of design concept data stored in the database 111 through at least one of a composite operation, a correction operation, and a combination operation.

The first mapping unit 120 selects the image data corresponding to the input keyword through the input step such as keyword input when the user determines the design concept through the image data output through the design inspiration unit 110 , Image mapping is performed through a plurality of design concepts through image data, a composite operation, a correction operation, or a combination operation. In the present invention, image data is stored in a database. Accordingly, the design inspiration unit 110 and the first mapping unit 120 can be selected and used by inputting a keyword.

The plurality of design concept data includes at least one concept of an overall design concept, a theme concept, or a material concept, which is selected in the image data format from the database through keyword input. The image data selected and used in the first mapping unit 120 is image data including keywords corresponding to overall design concept data, theme concept data, or material concept data. Therefore, at the time of keyword history, the image data including the input keyword is selected and output.

A plurality of design concept data that are subjected to a synthesis operation, a correction operation, or a combination operation with the image data in the first mapping unit 120 may be defined by the user through the image data output from the design inspiration unit 110, The design concept data is presented in a predetermined state by inputting the keyword included.

The first mapping unit 120 includes a concept image map unit 121 that maps the image data output from the design inspiration unit 110 to at least one of a composite operation or a correction operation so as to correspond to the overall design concept . The theme concept includes a theme image map section 122 that combines image data mapped by the concept image map section 121 and maps images by theme. And a material image map unit 123 for selecting garment material data and material color data corresponding to the image data mapped by the theme image map unit 122 and mapping the images to generate clothing design concept data.

In the first mapping unit 120, the concept image map unit 121 may be composed of various image tools such as a paint board capable of image compositing work or correction work. The theme image map unit 122 combines the image data output from the design inspiration unit 110 and the theme concept data of the image data format selected in the first mapping unit 120.

For example, the image data output from the design inspiration unit 110 is a background image in Europe, and the image data related to the overall design concept data selected and output in the concept image map unit 121 includes a European background image The image is mapped to image data that seems to represent autumn in Europe by a correction or a composite operation.

In addition, the theme image map section 122 combines image data related to clothes or accessories suitable for autumn in Europe with the image data mapped in the concept image map section 121 as a theme concept. The image data mapped by the concept image map section 121 and the theme image map section 122 becomes image data representing clothing or the like suitable for fall in Europe. In this image data, clothing material data and material color data are selected through the material image map section 123 and clothing design concept data is generated. When the process of the first mapping unit 120 is repeated, various clothing design concept data are generated for a plurality of design concepts.

The design sketch unit 130 applies clothing design concept data generated by the first mapping unit 120 to a virtual model such as an avatar. The design sketch unit 130 may include a variety of tools such as a paint board so that the designer can directly sketch the design. The clothing design concept may be automatically applied to the virtual model through a command input or an input tool.

The diagramming unit 140 flattens the garment design sketch data input from the design sketching unit 130 or the garment design concept data generated in the first mapping unit 120 and displays them as picture data. The diagramming unit 140 can receive a graphical representation of the user using a vector. Alternatively, the clothing design concept data may be flattened by selection through various input methods of the user to complete the graphic design. The diagramming unit 140 receives the clothing design diagram data.

The pattern unit 141 applies color data or pattern data to the clothing design diagram data. In addition, the pattern unit 141 receives a motif to be used as a scan input method, and designes a variety of textiles. The pattern unit 141 generates clothing design diagram data input through the diagramming unit 140 as clothing design patterning data.

The second mapping unit 150 applies the patterned garment design patterning data to the virtual model to solidify the pattern in 3D or 2D. The second mapping unit 150 can be driven for solidification in association with a stereoscopic program that is used for stereoscopic display. The program for solidification will not be limited to any one.

The fashion show unit 160 allows a fashion show to be performed on a virtual model in which clothing design diagram data is applied to a predetermined place, operation, and movement line. The fashion show section 160 allows the apparel design to evaluate the apparel design according to the place, situation, and the like. Thus, the user is able to modify and supplement the garment design schematization data, garment design sketch data or garment design concept data before the garment design is finalized.

2 and 3 are views for explaining a method of developing a clothing design using a clothing design development simulation system according to the present invention. As shown in the figure, a method of developing a clothing design using a clothing design development simulation system includes a step S1 in which the design inspiration unit 110 extracts image data from the database 111 and outputs the extracted image data.

The first mapping unit 120 maps the image data output from the design inspiration unit 110 to a predetermined plurality of design concept data to generate clothing design concept data.

In addition, the design sketching unit 130 may include receiving sketched clothing design sketch data according to the clothing design concept data generated by the first mapping unit 120 for the virtual model. In addition, step s4 includes the step of receiving the design data for designing the clothing design sketch data.

Further, the pattern unit 141 may further include step s5 of generating clothing design patterning data by combining at least one of the color data, the pattern data, and the textile data with the clothing design diagram data input in step s4.

In addition, the second mapping unit 150 includes step s6 of applying the clothing design patterning data to the virtual model to solidify the data. In addition, the step S7 may further include the step S7 in which the virtual show modeled by the showhow unit 160 in step S6 realizes a fashion show in a preset place.

In step s1, the keyword is inputted, and the image data including the keyword corresponding to the input keyword is extracted from the database and visually outputted. In the present invention, the keywords are not limited to any one and are various. Keywords are gender, age, season, region, device name, device type, apparel name, and type of apparel.

For example, in step s1, the user selects female, thirties, autumn, and europe as the keyword input, and enters the theme modern (concept car) or classic (european old wall). The design inspiration unit 110 extracts an image file satisfying various conditions and themes from the database and visually outputs the image file.

In step s1, when a keyword is input, the image data related to various themes and concepts are extracted from the database. Also, in step s1, a user who does not have prior knowledge of a clothing (fashion) design or a theme can easily find and check the image data by keyword alone.

Referring to FIG. 4, in step s1, a keyword 'romantic' is input through the design inspiration unit 110 in order to obtain design inspiration with a romantic image. In step s1, the design inspiration unit 110 visually compares the image data of the flower with the flowers corresponding to the keyword 'romantic', the image of the pink ribbon image data, the image of the woman wearing the dress, .

In step s2, the image data output from the design inspiration unit 110 in step s1 is mapped to generate clothing design concept data. In step s2, the image data and the plurality of design concept data stored in the database 111 are subjected to image mapping through at least one of a composite operation, a correction operation, and a combination operation. In step s2, a plurality of design concept data is constituted by at least one concept data among overall design concept data, theme concept data, or material concept data selected from the database 111 through keyword input for the selection condition.

3, the concept image map section 121 corresponds to the overall design concept data, and the concept image data of the image data output from the design inspiration section 110 is combined with at least one of the compositing operation or the modifying operation And step s2-1 of mapping an image by the operation of step S6-1.

In addition, the theme image map section 122 is composed of theme concept data and image data mapped by the concept image map section 121, and maps the images according to themes. In step s2-3, the material image map unit 123 selects apparel material data and material color data corresponding to the image data mapped in the theme image map unit 122, and maps the images to map clothing design concept data.

In step s2-1, the image data outputted in step s1 is subjected to image synthesis through a synthesis operation or a correction operation through a concept image map section 121 composed of various tools corresponding to the overall design concept data among a plurality of design concept data. For example, when the overall design concept data is set to 'Retro romantic' as shown in FIG. 5, for example, in step s2-1, retro style items of image data stored in a database, fashion style image data popular in the 1950s Select. In addition, according to the overall design concept, the image outputted in step s1 and the overall design concept data of the image data format, which was stored in the database, are synthesized and modified and the image is mapped.

In step s2-2, the theme concept data is set as a sub concept of the overall design concept data set in step s2-1, and the image is mapped according to the theme. For example, as shown in FIG. 6, when the overall design concept data is set to 'retro romantic' in step s2-1, the keywords such as famous actresses and fashionable clothes of the 1950s are input as keywords, The concept data is output, the overall design concept data of the image data format mapped in step s1 is combined with the theme concept data, and the image data is mapped to the image data output in step s1.

FIG. 6 is a graph showing the relationship between the theme design data and the theme concept data when the overall design concept data is set to 'retro romantic' and theme concept data is set to 'graceful my lady' and 'glittering wit' Image data such as Kelly image data and A-line dresses of a lady like look are outputted as theme concept data and combined with each other.

In step s2-3, the material image map unit 123 selects clothing material data and material color data corresponding to the image data mapped in the theme image map unit 122 based on hue & tone 120 color. At this time, the clothing material data and the clothing color data to be selected are selected from the material data and the color data corresponding to the inputted keyword when the keyword for the overall design concept data or the theme concept data is inputted through the material image map 123, Garment design concept data is generated by mapping.

Selection of material data and color data for generation of clothing design concept data by image mapping in step s2-3 can be freely made. In step s2-3, the color data is firstly selected for generation of clothing design concept data by image mapping, and after the color is determined, the material data is selected for image mapping. The present invention is not limited to this. In step s2-3, the material data may be selected first, and the color data may be selected and image mapped.

In this case, the color tone of the color data may be changed depending on the material data, and it is preferable that the color tone is expressed on the screen in consideration of this situation. It is also preferable that classification of the functional material is also reflected. For example, in the case of mountain climbing clothes or outdoor clothes, it is necessary to pre-select functional material data to combine color data.

In step s2-3, as shown in Fig. 7, after the overall design concept data is set to 'retro romantic' in step s2-1 and the image is mapped, the theme concept data is referred to as 'graceful my lady' glittering wit 'and the image mapping is performed again, in step s2-3, the raw image map unit 123 selects color data such as orange, emerald, and indigo pink among the color data matching each of the above-mentioned themes, It completes.

In addition, as in the case of color, a material map is completed by selecting materials such as chiffon, satin, and lace from among material data suited to the theme data. In step s2-3, clothing data of the clothes and color data of the materials are selected and image mapping is performed to complete the clothing design concept data.

In step s3, as shown in Fig. 8, the clothing design concept data completed in steps s1 and s2 can be represented in a virtual model such as an avatar. In step s3, the user uses the input tool to sketch the garment design directly using a design tool such as a paint board, and receives the garment design sketch data according to the sketch. In step s3, clothing design concept data of an image data format to be visually outputted is automatically applied to a virtual model when a user selects the input data using an input tool. In step s3, it is possible to sketch in 2D or 3D, and it is desirable to achieve a purpose of a simple sketch by 2D.

In step s4, the diagram of the clothing design diagram obtained by schematizing the garment design sketch data of step s3 by the diagramming unit 140 is shown as a picture. Step s4 may be directly performed by the user, image data for the display selected in the database may be selected through keyword input and applied to the clothing design diagram data. In step s4, as shown in Fig. 9, the detailed design of the garment design sketch data input in step s3 is illustrated. For example, if garment design sketch data for a dress is generated in step s3, step s4 schematically shows the parts of the dress such as wrinkles, sleeves, buttons, and the like.

Step s5 is a step of patterning the flat design data of the clothing design completed by the drawing. In step s5, the virtual clothing data corresponding to the clothes is created on the computer, and then the textile is designed.

In step s5, as shown in Figs. 10 and 11, the apparel design diagram data inputted in step s4 is generated as virtual clothing data, and the virtual clothing data is inputted as at least one of the scan data according to the scan input or the input data according to the direct input method To generate clothing design patterning data. It also allows color data or pattern data to be appended to the clothing design schema data or the textiles to be designed.

On the other hand, the step s5 may design the textiles as at least one of the raw image data, the scan data according to the scan input, or the input data among the image data stored in the database. The scan data or input data may be various image data.

In step s6, as shown in FIG. 12, the second mapping unit 150 applies 3D dimension information to the three-dimensional virtual model by using 2D (Dimensions) information of the clothing design patterning data. Step s6 can check the suitability of the clothing design, the degree of fitting, etc. while rotating the virtual model back and forth. Step s6 can be implemented in conjunction with various 3D programs.

In step s7, as shown in FIG. 13, a virtual model of 3D to which the clothing design patterning data is applied is moved by the fashion show unit 160 in a predetermined line and an action at a place such as a stage implemented on the display. The virtual place in which the virtual model is walking in step s7 is not limited to any one, and various places can be set. For example, if a place to walk is set as a home in step s7, the virtual model performs an operation like walking in a space of a typical home.

Thus, in step s7, the clothing design can know how the feeling is transmitted by factors such as the place. In addition, it is possible to predict clothing design according to various factors, and it is possible to design clothes effectively considering these factors.

A clothing design development simulation system and a clothing design development method using the same according to the present invention output image data from a database, image-map output image data corresponding to a design concept, generate clothing design concept data, And the pattern is applied to the virtual model to apply the clothing design patterning data. Therefore, from the initial stage of inspiration in the clothing design development process to the completion of the clothing design, the simulation is performed through the computer So that the clothes can be easily designed.

In addition, since the selected image data in the database is combined with the predetermined overall design concept data and the theme concept data, and the material data and color data are selected and the image is mapped, it is possible to use the database in which the design concept data, Apparel design is possible.

In addition, when image data selected from a database is mapped for clothing design, clothing data, color data, theme data, and the like are applied to image data, and the completed clothing design is applied to a virtual model to be stereoscopic, Since the fashion show is implemented using the model, it is possible to predict the clothing design according to various factors such as the texture of the material, whether or not it is worn, and enables the effective design of the garment considering these factors.
