AI Big Model Boosts The Upgrading Of Clothing Industry

Open the interface, determine the style, select the fabric, add accessories... In just a few minutes, a fashionable dress has been designed on the computer. Reporters saw at the World Internet Conference "Light of the Internet" Expo yesterday that Hangzhou Shentu Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd. independently developed the first AI model in the fabric field of the textile and clothing industry, demonstrating its magical design ability.

　　 "In the past, we designed clothes. The first step was for the design director to come up with a concept, and then we went to Shaoxing Keqiao to purchase fabrics. The fastest way to go back and forth was one day. Next, it took one day for the designer to draw and the plate maker to make plates. Finally, it took two to three days to make sample clothes, arrange orders, cut, match accessories, and trim. As a whole, it took five to seven days for an enterprise to produce sample clothes normally Days. " Li Peishun, director of Shenzhen Map Intelligent Marketing, introduced.

The AI model developed by Shenzhen Map Intelligence has shortened the whole process to less than three days. "With the help of our industrial design software, we can achieve 40 seconds of drawing, 3 hours of plate making, and 72 hours of sample clothing production." Li Peishun said that they have set up a central workshop in Xucun, Haining, which stores various common fabrics in the market, "After the user completes the plate making, he will transfer the pattern to us, and we can directly complete the production of the sample clothes in the central workshop, saving the time for purchasing fabrics."

"We sampled and marked more than 400000 kinds of fabrics in the early stage, and it was clear which brand and where we bought them." Li Peishun said that compared with the general design model abroad, their self-developed software was more specialized in the clothing field, "For example, you need a down jacket. The design drawings provided by foreign software include not only clothes, but also models, stages and other elements. Our pictures only cover the front and back of the clothes, which is more convenient for subsequent plate making."

At the forum on building a modern industrial system led by digital economy held yesterday afternoon, Chen Wenxing, academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and president of Zhejiang University of Technology, said that clothing design software is no less important than chips, "In recent years, our domestic clothing design software has made great progress. Clothing design has become convenient and fast. The designed clothing can see the effect immediately, and consumers can also participate in it. This is a very efficient design method, which will change the production mode of clothing in the future."

Chen Wenxing believes that digital technology is promising not only in design and production, but also in the stage of clothing promotion and application, "For example, clothing can be used in games, which can directly reach young people, and is very beneficial for brand building and market promotion. In addition, clothing can also be used in animation, film and television, metauniverse and other virtual worlds, and virtual fashion shows have also appeared abroad."

Zhang Ping an, the executive director of Huawei and CEO of Huawei Cloud, also believes that ecology determines the voice of the digital world. China is already a major supplier of hardware equipment in the world, but there is still a big gap in the number of IT software and hardware tools. It is still American companies that dominate the technology ecology, "At present, the CPU market from China accounts for only 3%, and the operating system of domestic servers only accounts for 9%. In the industrial software market, the software from China accounts for less than 5%."
