Abstract
Systems and methods for automated patternmaking. To create patterns for use in manufacturing a desired piece of clothing, body measurements, style, and fit are entered and a suitable 3D model of the piece of clothing is generated based on those body measurements, style and fit. Once finalized, the surface of the 3D model is converted into multiple 2D models, each 2D model corresponding to an expected pattern for the piece of clothing. These 2D models are then finalized by being adjusted for manufacturing needs. The resulting patterns from the 2D models are then used as the required patterns for manufacturing the piece of clothing. The process may be used in other types of manufacturing that requires patterns to be generated.
