The brief

This project will develop an Adaptive Clothing and equipment Supply system,(ACES).

This will comprise handheld 3d scanner to capture anthropometric information, a 3D data base of clothing and equipment and several techniques which will match these and enable correct user- sizing.

The Heart of the system will be a machine learning algorithm that will identify key metrics required to fit each item which will match the wearer with the correct size garment.

The programme will also review how 3D printed inserts can be used to make stock sized equipment such as helmets and respirators fit exactly onto the wearer
