  • Virtual Garment Creation
    3 Virtual Garment Creation Ausma Viļumsone and Inga Dāboliņa Riga Technical University Institute of Textile Material Technologies and Design, Riga Latvia 1. Introduction The use of new information technologies and software provide the possibility to solve problems connected with raising work efficiency in the company (Hannelore, 1999). The first information on using information technologies in the sewing industry, particularly in construction designing, turned up in the beginning of the 70-ies of the XX century, but first publications on computer aided designing software – only in the 90-ies of the XX century. At present most of the companies use computer aided software. Modern computer aided designing software provides the possibility to avoid small operations and manual work, to raise precision, productivity and organize information flow (Beazley, 2003). The usage of garment designing systems excludes the time consuming manual preparation of patterns, creation of layouts and relocation of written information. The computer systems are meant for the execution of every single process and the integration of all processes into one joint flow, for the organization of logistics and the mobility of work tasks. The computerization of different processes in the garment industry is necessary to reduce the costs of a product and raise the competitiveness (Kang, 2000). Computer systems allow making two dimensional as well as three dimensional product illustrations and visualizations (D'Apuzzo, 2009; Lectra, 2009). It is possible to create computer aided garment constructions, as well as gradations, and create a virtual first pattern of the model - such computer aided operations significantly decrease the time consumption and cost necessary to design a product.

Memorial Tributes: Volume 10 H.JOSEPH GERBER 95 H.JOSEPH GERBER 1924–1996 BY ANTHONY J.DEMARIA H.JOSEPH GERBER, founder, board chairman, former chief executive officer, and president of Gerber Scientific, Inc. of South Windsor, Connecticut, died August 8, 1996, at a hospital in Hartford, Connecticut. He was seventy-two years old. Joe was born on April 7, 1924, in Vienna, Austria. He became a U.S. citizen in 1945. He was imprisoned in a Nazi labor camp at age fifteen, and came to the United States from Vienna about 1940. He arrived with few possessions and without a strong command of English. He graduated from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, New York, with a B.S. degree in aeronautical engineering in 1946. He started inventing new measurement and calculation tools while in college. In 1948 Joe founded Gerber Scientific with about $3,000. The company, based in South Windsor, Connecticut, now employees about 28,000 people and had revenues of just under $600 million in fiscal year 1999. He is survived by his wife, whom he married in 1953, a son, who is a director and a vice-president of business development and technology strategy at Gerber Scientific, and a daughter. Mr. Gerber is a classic rags-to-tech-riches story. He had over 648 U.S. and foreign patents issued in his name. As a junior at Rensselaer, he invented a graphical numerical computer called the Gerber Variable Scale. At the time, it was called the most revolutionary engineering tool since the slide rule.
