Cloth Model Fitting for Laundry Folding Support

Abstract

Laundry folding has the role that makes laundry compact and easy to store. The work is, however, less preferred than other housework. This paper, therefore, describes to present folding procedure by using clothes model fitting for laundry folding support. A cloth model is constituted by mesh, where each node has its state transition, in order to keep cloth folding procedure in the same model. The cloth model fits to a target cloth based on an energy function. Each node is relocated to a surrounding pixel to minimize the energy. IoU(Intersection over Union) is greater than 0.97 for all tests and the average difference of the folds becomes 4.7pixel.
