Summary

We were contacted by Kenzan SA for the making of a 3D animation requiring different short captures of professional athletes. To this aim, we spent several days in the Swiss mountains to perform the motion capture of the following winter disciplines: Nordic skiing, alpine skiing, freestyle skiing, snowboard, ice hockey, speed skating and bobsleigh.

The final animation was shown on a spherical 360° display at the Winter Olympic Games in Sochi 2014 at the Omega House.

Summary

First project in partnership with the Geneva University of Art and Design (HEAD) to test the protocol for a more comprehensive research to improve the comfort of garments.

Today, the complex sensations of comfort (interaction body – clothing, suitability of fabrics, etc.) are subjectively evaluated on a static body. The goal of this project was to provide new knowledge about comfort and garment fit taking into account the body movement. The comfort sensation was objectively measured with new 3D simulation tools on animated bodies, returning numerical fitting data. Ultimately, the existing perception of comfort will be innovated.

You can see here the related research project.
