TUKA3D

TUKA3D is a software solution designed by TUKATECH for fashion designers, pattern makers, product developers, apparel manufacturers, and fashion brands. According to the vendor, this innovative product aims to revolutionize the fashion industry by providing 3D sample making capabilities for fashion design and fit. It is intended for use by small to large companies in the fashion industry. TUKA3D allows users to create virtual garments, simulate motion and fit, test different fabrics, and streamline the design and development process. The following are key features of TUKA3D, as described by the vendor:

3D Models: TUKA3D models are meticulously created from 3D body scan data of live fit models, aiming to accurately represent human body shape and size. These models serve as the foundation for virtual garment fitting and motion simulation.

Motion Simulation: TUKA3D models are rigged with real-time animations, allowing designers to visualize how the garment moves and fits. The motion simulation feature enables designers to evaluate the fit of the garment in motion, analyzing tightness, looseness, and overall frame-by-frame garment behavior.

Digital Cloth: According to the vendor, TUKA3D offers a comprehensive library of real fabric swatches with physical fabric properties and texture effects. Designers can test different fabrics on their virtual garments, observing how they drape and behave. The digital cloth aims to accurately replicate the look and feel of actual fabrics.

Integrated CAD: TUKA3D seamlessly integrates with the TUKAdesign system, enabling designers to create and modify patterns within the software. The integration of CAD tools is said to streamline the design and development process, enhancing efficiency and accuracy.

Virtual Design Software: TUKA3D provides a wide range of design tools, including a fabric and trims library and the ability to apply prints and logos to virtual garments. Additionally, designers can utilize graphic design applications like Adobe Photoshop or Illustrator for design layouts, offering maximum creative flexibility.

3D Fit Software: TUKA3D facilitates in-depth analysis of garment fit in motion. Designers can conduct virtual fit sessions to evaluate the comfort and fit of the garment, examining aspects such as stretch, warp, weft, pressure, and even x-ray views of the virtual garment.

3D Digital Photoshoot: TUKA3D comes with built-in lights, cameras, and rendering capabilities, enabling designers to conduct virtual photoshoots to showcase their designs. Whether for presentations, on TUKAcloud, or on websites, designers can customize camera and light settings to create visually appealing virtual visuals.

Online Training Available: TUKA3D offers comprehensive online training courses to help designers master the art of creating 3D samples. These courses cover various aspects such as draping, motion simulation, colorway creation, and rendering. The vendor claims that designers can learn how to create files for TUKAcloud and TUKA3D DE Visualizer.

Recommended Hardware for TUKA3D: According to the vendor, TUKA3D has specific hardware requirements for optimal performance. It is recommended to have a powerful processor, sufficient RAM, a compatible video card, a network connection, USB ports, and multiple monitors.
