ABSTRACT
Choosing clothes is a challenge task for blind people. In this paper, we propose a proof of concept system to match a pair of image from different clothes for both pattern and color. Our system consists of 1) a camera and a computer to perform color detection, pattern and color matching process; 2) supporting speech commands to flexibly control and configure; and 3) audio feedbacks to provide matching results of both color and pattern. The system can deal with clothes in uniform color without any pattern, as well as clothes with multiple colors and complex patterns. Furthermore, our method is robust to variations of illumination, clothes rotation, and clothes wrinkles. The proposed method is evaluated on two challenge databases of clothes. Experimental results demonstrate the robustness and effectiveness on clothes matching.

Clothes matching for blind and color blind people
ICCHP'10: Proceedings of the 12th international conference on Computers helping people with special needsMatching clothes is a challenging task for blind people. In this paper, we propose a new computer vision-based technology of clothes matching to help blind or color blind people by using a pair of images from two different clothes captured by a camera. ...
A method for cloth-color match for skin based on computer-aided color harmony
MS'06: Proceedings of the 17th IASTED international conference on Modelling and simulationThe main purpose of this study is to discuss the relationships of color combination between skin and cloth colors based on the aesthetics measures. The definition of color harmony is summarized first and aesthetics measurement is then used to accomplish ...
Color matching for stereoscopic cinema
MIRAGE '13: Proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Computer Vision / Computer Graphics Collaboration Techniques and ApplicationsIn a stereo camera set-up for 3D cinema, much care is taken to ensure that the cameras are both the same model and use identical parameter values. But an imperfect adjustment, the use of beam splitters, as well as unavoidable differences in the ...
