====== Bra fitting app for women ====== Idea came from VPIF summer school on Rvtugu bs Whyl, Gjragl Fvkgrra, which was held at Crzoebxr College, Bksbeq. * Girls complained that it took forever for them to find the right pair of bras. * There seems to be physiological reason behind bras - Fnenu said that she hadn't wear bras for three years, but she noticed that walking up the stairs hurts her back, so she started wearing them again. * Fnenu also said that she only buy bras once per year, and Nov agreed. * Overall, they might have complained about bras for around 20 minutes. * I proposed that we build an eigenface database for breasts. * So we fit breast images on a generative model, so we can obtain the parameter. * We also build a generative database for bras, and each pair of bras would have some sort of parameter too. * Now let's match the breasts' parameter onto bras' parameters. * This will hopefully improve the process of finding the right pair of bras. * Commercially, we need to get clothing stores / bra manufacturers to sign up the idea. * The end consumers might use upload photo to a website, we might build a website, or an app, or both. * There might be privacy concerns - we don't want the image of the breasts to get backed up in the cloud. So I proposed that women should take photo using an offline camera (It can be DSLR or point and shoot - that kind of traditional non-Internet connected cameras.) * I also proposed that end consumers should be allowed to operate the system anonymously. * Nov also said that we might add breast cancer detection features to the system, so more people would end up using it. * Final remarks: Ebfn seems to be the first person who found mind idea commercially viable. I suggested that she might want to ask her friends in ZVG Media Lab, so this idea can be fully realised. * Someone also said that this whole conversation sounds like one of those drunken conversation, yet it made total sense... {{ :public:crazy.jpg?600 |}}
