Interactive System for Designing Paper Pattern of Pouches

Abstract

For handicraft works, production kits are sold that even beginners can make it easily. But even a simple shaped pouch, it is difficult to design a pattern corresponding to the idealized finished size. In this paper, we propose a system that supports making pouches from the design of what users want to make to actually sewing it. The user selects one from three designs and inputs the size. The system calculates the appropriate pattern from each input of numerical value and supports procurement of necessary materials and cutting of parts. Also, by displaying the manufacturing procedure, the system supports the completion of the pouch. You can also design the pattern of cloth you want to use and combine it with a paper making support system or procedure display system. By displaying the manufacturing prosses using the pattern of the designed cloth, more concreate and motivated production support becomes possible.
