1.04 Digital Services for Made in Italy: Digital-twins for predictive models and to support the lifecycle of Fashion products 

The project aims at adopting a digital twin-centric approach to the design, production, and commercialization of fashion products. To push such an approach and verify its feasibility within the considered domain of interest, the following results are expected within the project: (a) the definition of a digital twin abstraction which may include all of the information relevant during its design and production phases, on one side, and all of the information relevant for consumers, on the other. (b) analysis and verification of methodologies apt to transform 2d images into 3d meshes to be able to leverage existing fashion archives. (c) an analysis of the most advanced approaches, based on extended reality technologies and generative adversarial networks, apt to manipulate, transform 3d content and visualize it during creative processes. (d) verification of the information the digitization process of materials may reveal (e.g., quality, resistance, smoothness, etc.) and of how to include it within a digital twin. (e) the individuation of the technological infrastructure required to support the acquisition and prediction of logistical, material, waste, and trend information. (f) an analysis of the most suitable prediction methods that may employed with the aim of optimizing the industrial phase. (g) an analysis of how the e-commerce platforms may incorporate digital twins as the point of contact between a consumer and a brand. (h) the implementation digital twin prototypes that may serve as proof of concepts to let their advantages and eventual critical points emerge.
