So one of my colleague (Sazzad Rafique) was sharing his experience of Augmented Reality at the Lego store in New York city called "Lego Digital Box". Basically when you place a box of Lego in front of the camera it reads the barcode on the box and displays three dimensional model of what can be made from that box of blocks on the screen.
So this made me think of an idea. I'm sure someone somewhere already thought of this but it would be really cool if there was something like "Lego Digital Box" for clothing stores. You go to a shop pick up couple of khakis and t-shirts. Stand in front of the camera that scans your body and the barcodes on the khakis and t-shirts. Voilà! the screen will display a three dimensional model of you wearing those clothes. This will help you judge how the clothes looks on you, if it fits perfectly or not, stop skin and other diseases by wearing the same clothes worn by others, help people who have hyper-concern over personal hygiene & germs and my personal favorite no more trialing for clothes, I'm super lazy :)
This will also help cut down the workforce, as the clothes doesn't need to be folded and stacked on the shelves over and over, thus saving money...
