Sometimes finding the right pair of jeans for your body can be a hassle; not all sizes measure up to be the same, and different styles fit differently on body types. Keeping this in mind, Bloomingdale’s teamed up with Bodymetrics, 3D body-mapping pioneers from London, to create the Bodymetrics pod to help women find the perfect pairs of jeans that flatter their shape.
The Bodymetrics Pod works by scanning the body through Kinect [by Windows] sensors and classifies the body into shape categories. It then takes measurements and contours of the body to give you a range of options. This process can take less than 5 seconds! This futuristic changing room was featured during Bloomingdale’s Denim Days in Los Angeles. Bodymetrics is also planning on advancing this ‘virtual changing room’ to the home, in which users can use this technology through their Kinect and shop online.
