Employing state-of-the-art techniques in Computer Vision, my team developed a backend application aimed at deriving accurate anthropometric measurements to provide apparel size recommendations. By harnessing the power of PyTorch and integrating the latest advancements in Image synthesis and 3D regression, we successfully designed a robust processing pipeline and a compelling proof of concept. The key components of this endeavor encompassed:- Curating a custom training dataset comprising 60,000 images, achieved through a meticulously crafted web scraper. Subsequently, the dataset was subjected to rigorous cleaning, tagging, and organization procedures in preparation for the training phase.- Seamlessly amalgamating insights from various cutting-edge research projects, I constructed tailored training and inference pipelines that underpin the heart of this application.- Extending the project's scope, I created microservices using FastAPI, enabling the seamless deployment of these models within a demo React application, thereby delivering a comprehensive and user-friendly experience.Proneer is a deep tech SaaS company and among the first to offer personalization solutions for apparel retailers which is compatible with

We uniquely combined tech with beauty using a novel IoT device and an AI-powered personalization pipeline to create personalized skincare lotions tailored towards environmental conditions and the lifestyle habits of each individual customer.
