A method of identifying footwear which best fits a customer's feet, includes the steps of digitizing the feet of a customer needing footwear with a 3D foot scanner and generating a numerical 3D model of the customer's feet, comparing, with a computer-based matching engine, the information of the 3D feet model with the content of a database containing numerical 3D models of the interior shoe shape of footwear available to be sold, producing a list of one or more best-fit footwear candidates to the customer and/or to the staff of a footwear shop and concluding the purchasing process or, respectively, aborting it in case of insufficient best fit footwear being found in the footwear stock available for selling.

There is described a method and an apparatus for the optical 3D digitization of bodies and body parts which reveal non-visible regions which therefore cannot be detected by the 3D digitizer. A mechanical aid is fixed at these regions and protrudes into the measurement space visible for the 3D digitizer. On this visible part, it is provided with marks and is digitized together with the remaining, visible body parts. From the spatial position of the marks of these aids, important geometrical information of the non-visible parts, such as the spatial position, circumferential dimensions, etc., can be calculated, and the 3D model of the body or body part incomplete at these points can be completed therewith. Two applications from the field of orthopedics are described by way of example.

A method is described for selecting, in a cost-effective and largely automated manner, best fit footwear with an optimally selected or individualized footbed. With the aid of a preferably multisensory foot scanner, the geometric three-dimensional shape of the foot and the plantar pressure image registered with it are determined at the same time. A database of digitized shoe interiors is used for determining, by means of a best fit selection, the series-produced shoe that best matches the 3D foot model. Using a conventional system for producing individualized insoles and/or footbeds, an insole that matches the sole of the foot is selected or prepared and, in a further, novel method step according to the invention, by means of numerical determination of the three-dimensional surfaces of the footbed, the foot sole and the peripheral zone of the sole in the inner shoe, the so-called insole space, the required insole constituting the footbed is selected, or further processed numerically, such that it fits in an optimum manner into the selected best fit item of footwear in the put-on condition.

In a cost-efficient method and arrangement for 3D digitization of bodies and body parts, which produces dense and exact spatial coordinates despite imprecise optics and mechanics, the body to be digitized is placed on a photogrammetrically marked surface, a photogrammetrically marked band is fitted to the body or body part to be digitized, and a triangulation arrangement comprised of a camera and a light pattern projector is moved on a path around the body. By a photogrammetric evaluation of the photogrammetric marks of the surface and the band situated in the image field of the camera, and of the light traces of the light projector on the marked surface and the marked band, all unknown internal and external parameters of the triangulation arrangement are determined, and the absolute spatial coordinates of the body or body part are established from the light traces on the non-marked body with high point density and high precision without any separate calibration methods.

There is described a photogrammetric method and an arrangement for the three-dimensional digitizing of bodies and body parts (26) which are covered with a marked, elastic cover (14), which comprises high-contrast marks which are photogrammetrically analysable, and which are photographed from different shooting positions. For the purpose, at least one camera (22) is moved around the body with a simple, inaccurate guide and images overlapping each other are taken from different positions in space to cover both the body and several of the marks (10) of the support (12). Methods of photogrammetry as well as digital image processing and pattern recognition provide precise space coordinates of the body to be digitized. One exemplary application is the digitizing of the foot/lower leg portion for the selection or custom manufacture of anatomically well-fitting footwear, the digitizing of the leg portion for the manufacture or selection of well-fitting compression stockings.

The invention relates to a method for detecting the three-dimensional shape of an object (2) during which an object (2) provided with photogrammetrically evaluable marks (4) is placed on a surface (5) at a predetermined location. This surface is provided with additional photogrammetrically evaluable marks (6) that are arranged in a predetermined manner with regard to one another. The surface extends in such a manner that the additional marks (6) are arranged around the contact surface of the object located on the surface. A number of images of the object (2) are taken from different views so that, in addition to the object (2), the surface (5) is also at least partially depicted. The three-dimensional shape of the object is determined from the images with the aid of the markers (4) of the object and of the markers (6) of the surface (5) by using a photogrammetric method. The inventive method enables slim objects to be digitized with a high degree of precision whereby eliminating the need for a scale that was placed in the images according to the prior art. The invention also relates to a system for implementing the method.

A method and a device for categorizing articles of clothing and a method and a device for selecting footwear having an improved fit are specified. A parameter describing the fit and/or the size of an article of clothing is acquired on the basis of a measurement carried out on the article of clothing in question. This measurement is performed for a plurality of articles of clothing of different manufacturers but having an identical manufacturer clothing size, a plurality of different manufacturer clothing sizes being furthermore considered. A frequency analysis for the occurrence of specific values of the at least one parameter is then performed for articles of clothing having an identical manufacturer clothing size. The articles of clothing are categorized by a new allocation of the clothing size, a new clothing size being allocated to the articles of clothing in such a manner that the parameters of the articles of clothing provided with the new clothing size within this new clothing size have a smaller dispersion.

A method for selecting a shoe fitted to a foot from a plurality of shoes. For each shoe from the plurality of shoes, a dimensionally accurate outline of the footbed of the shoe is provided in electronic form. Further, for each shoe from the plurality of shoes, a dimensionally accurate outline of a section through the shoe, wherein the sectional plane runs perpendicularly to the footbed and along the way of largest foot length of a foot positioned in the shoe, is provided in electronic form. A representation of the footbed outline and of the sectional outline to scale is effected for a shoe on a flat screen, wherein the design of the outline area is in distinct contrast to the design of the background area. The foot is positioned on and in front of the flat screen, respectively, such that preferably only a circumferential edge of the represented outline remains visible. A visual comparison of the represented outlines with the foot to be dressed is effected by assessing the edge of the represented outline remaining visible with respect to size and progress. Further, an assembly for selecting a shoe fitted to a foot from a plurality of shoes including a data processing system with a database and an output unit, as well as an assembly for simultaneous representation of the footbed outline and the sectional outline to scale for a shoe corresponding to the method with two flat screens perpendicular to each other are provided.
