Online Shopping with Augmented Reality

My apologies for not updating the blog earlier.

So as proposed, the 3rd proposal for my FYP has been stamped approve by my lecturers. So here I am to describe how the project installation gonna look like.

Normally when e-shoppers browse around a web shop, for instance, eBay, they will just going to click around and browse to see the pictures of their potential clothes that they going to purchase looks like. Some blog shops post up models wearing their clothing that they want to sell. Particularly like the picture below.

Based on the picture above, it clearly shows how the top looks like worn by the model.

What I'm here to propose here is that, why not we let the e-shoppers try the cloth themselves, online before purchasing it?

How? By creating a virtual fitting room, using augmented reality (AR). With AR, e-shoppers can see themselves in the a particular clothing, just like they see themselves in a fitting room of a shopping mall.
