Abstract
Techniques to determine the three-dimensional structure of wearable items are disclosed. A scanning device can project waves at a wearable item and receive reflections of the waves. In embodiments, the scanning device projects light pulses and detects reflections of the light pulses. Depth measurements from the scanning device to the wearable item can be used to determine points corresponding to locations on the wearable item. A point cloud can be generated of the points, which can convey the three-dimensional structure of the wearable item. In embodiments, another wearable item can be determined to have a corresponding three-dimensional structure based on point cloud comparisons. The second wearable item can be suggested to a user as a wearable item having an appropriate fit for the user.
