Abstract

We propose an innovative 3D wig designing system which would replace the traditional manual method. The customer's head is scanned by a 3D head scanner and the whole design process is computerized. After sending the design data to the wig-making factory through the internet, the data are reproduced by an NC milling machine to make a wig pattern. To realize our integrated 3D wig designing system, various CAD technologies are implemented: 3D scanning, triangular mesh generation, texture mapping, mesh smoothing, mesh splitting, mesh offsetting, 3D sketch using NURBS curve, tool-path generation, etc.
