NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - October 26, 2015) - ICAP Patent Brokerage announces for sale early priority patents disclosing a virtual clothing experience, available from NIWOT IP, LLC. This portfolio is offered as part of the Internet of Things IP Auction, with a bidding deadline of November 12th, 2015.
"This technology is essential to clothing manufacturers and e-tailers who wish to give Internet users an authentic shopping experience," said Dean Becker, CEO of ICAP Patent Brokerage.
Shopping can be time and consuming and inconvenient, often requiring trips to multiple stores to find clothes with the right look and fit. This portfolio, with priority dates from 2001, discloses systems and methods for simplifying the process of clothing shopping by eliminating the need to physically try on garments. Using a computer, users can virtually try on a vast online catalog of garments from the privacy of their own home, ensuring style, fit, and colors meet their needs.
Just as in traditional retail shopping, a shopper picks out a garment for fitting. The virtual clothing experience utilizes cameras, such as a webcam or the camera on a mobile device, and a display to generate an image of the actual user, with garments superimposed on their person.
This technology represents a fundamental aspect of retailing clothing online. Retail e-commerce revenue of apparel and accessories is expected to reach US$86.4 billion by 20181.
Sample forward citing companies include Adidas Ag, Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.p., Qualcomm Incorporated, True Fit Corporation.
