abstract = {The function of mannequin is important for designing and making clothes, and the
garment size is crucial foundation for making out the standardized mannequins. With the extensive
application of the non-contact three-dimensional human body scanning technology, the digitization
of the anthropometric measurement has been realized which provides full support towards computer
aided design of mannequins in garment industry. In order to match with the present national standard,
intermediate forms of mannequin have been developed for fitting garments made to measure instead
of human body. This paper reports related preliminary research of parameterized mannequin, based on
the survey of female university students in the mid-west area in China. Using statistical calculations
as the foundation, 7 categories of somatotypes were used to obtain intermediate sizes and stepping
values. This mannequin provides variational control for middle layer measurements with the help
of scanner software. Having measured girths of middle layer across breast, waist and hip separately,
change relations after the statistical analysis provide the basis for determining changes in middle layers.
Through the programming under the platform of VC++.net and OpenGL, parameterized mannequin
can be created, enabling us to construct an intermediate model. Parameterized mannequin can fit
standard series or customized, if necessary, to incorporate changes not only by stepping values based
on statistical analysis, but also by arbitrary adjusting within an allowable range.},
