This subgroup plans to provide methods, tools, benchmarks, resources and testing procedures to define and quantify the quality of 3D models as well as the quality of the critical data for use cases, such as body landmarks and measurements or use applications such as VR.

Technologies that have radicalized other industries have had limited effect and slow adoption within the apparel pipeline. Having identified “Fit” as key obstacle, this sub-group was formed. The goal is to determine what 3D related systems/processes need standards or new methodologies, beyond current industry practices/methodologies, for describing Apparel Fit in 3D and are relevant for 2D apparel manufacturing practices. The subgroup has begun by considering communication barriers regarding language, terminology, definitions and body shapes along with 3D scanning that may impact the methodology of 2D and 3D pattern making.

Focus on sensors connectivity to servers/routers, smartphones, and a cloud. The work will involve, writing implementation guidelines, creating standard interoperability data sheet, creating open-source APIs and other items as requested by participants of the IEEE Roundtable meeting of industry experts
