What is NX-16?


NX-16 is the latest model of the 3D Body Scanner from [TC]2. The NX-16 utilizes a non-invasive scanning method to produce a true-to-scale 3D body model in seconds. The uses of the 3D body model are truly unlimited and includes:

  • Sizing surveys
  • Custom fitting apparels
  • 3D product developments including apparels, automotive seating, etc.
  • Body-shape analysis
  • Animation and graphics
  • Health and fitness management
  • Medical applications
  • Computer gaming immersion

The NX-16 uses safe white light for the scan and provides exceptional accuracy when compared to manual measurements. The process of scanning is private and safe.

Software


The 3D Body Measurement Software provides an easy and user-friendly interface to extract the measurements and manipulate the data. The definitions of the measurements are customizable and exported to other formats such as for CAD systems.

The software also allows batch processing of measurement extraction when required. This removes the manual portion of repeatable tasks by removing the need for user intervention.

Printing the scan results is also available for those who would require a hard copy for reference purposes. The print output is customizable to allow you to see only what you require.

Virtual Fashion


With the latest release of the NX-16 software and the integrated virtual fashion software database, it is now possible to try on virtual garments on 3D avatars that are morphed to the dimensions of the body scan data used. Coupled with the Face From Photo feature, the realistic simulation offers an enhanced experience in virtual shopping.

Version 3.0 of the Virtual Fashion now includes a variety of hairstyles, skin textures, face texturing and body color texturing. There is also an expanded set of 3D garment content and supports the addition of user-created garment content using commercially available software such as Optitex or Browzer or any software that exports garments in open source formats.
