Abstract

Operating a system displaying a mirror-mimicking image on the monitor to enable a user to try a clothing item, by: obtaining digital images of a live video feed of length of N seconds from the camera; saving the digital images in the memory; flipping the images about a vertical axis so as to reverse right and left sides of the image; applying a transformation mapping to the images to modify the images such that they appear to mimic a reflection of a mirror, to thereby obtain transformed images; displaying the transformed images on the monitor to thereby replay the video feed of N seconds using the transformed images; wherein the length of N seconds is configured to be enough time to allow the user to get a good impression on the way the clothing item looks.
