The FashionLab by Dassault Systèmes has been collaborating with ECCO Innovation Lab on a 3D print footwear project that can interpret biomechanic data into geometries for 3D printing, without any operator intervention.
Project Quant-U’s generative designs are created using the cloud-based 3DExperience Platform, and are validated through FEA simulations for superior functionality.
“Shoes will be automatically engineered to a wearer’s unique biomechanical and orthotic parameters representing a revolution in ultimate engineered comfort,” said Lauriane Favre, marketing director for the Consumer Goods & Retail Industry at Dassault Systèmes.
“Within project Quant-U, the Innovation Lab ECCO collaborated with the FashionLab, Dassault Systèmes’ technology incubator dedicated to the use of 3D design, simulation and collaboration applications in consumer goods and fashion, to develop a powerful self-learning system based on our own algorithms.”
