Pressure Comfort and Garment Fit Assessment
topic
Interface pressure mapping uses flexible sensor arrays placed between garment and skin to measure the spatial distribution of mechanical pressure in millimetres of mercury, capturing peak pressures at waistbands, cuffs, shoulder seams, and bra straps; 3D body scanning quantifies ease allowance and fabric tension distribution across the garment shell.
Role
Identifies pressure discomfort hotspots in tight-fitting sportswear, compression garments, and occupational clothing, enabling pattern grading, fabric tension, and garment construction modifications that reduce restricted movement and contact pressure to within comfort thresholds.
