<p>A new service will provide users with a 3D avatar of themselves with which to try on clothes when shopping online.<br /><br /></p>.<p>A New York-based company said that it can create a 3D avatar of an individual that not only looks like them, but is also morphologically exact. It claims to provide a 99 per cent accurate representation of the user.<br /><br />The avatar is created using the height measurement of the user and four photos. An algorithm is used to extract more than 50 parameters based on how a user looks, while another is used to create a 3D reconstruction of the user.<br /><br />The company Fitle also uses its recognition and reconstruction algorithms to digitise clothing, 'Gizmag' reported.<br /><br />By doing so, Fitle said it is able to generate "accurate 3D versions of clothes based on their dimensions, size and material."<br /><br />The service will also take into consideration the users' body shape and learn from their browsing and past purchases to spontaneously select the right articles for them.
