Mass-customization We want to build a new business model that uses 3D scanning and 3D printing as tools for mass-customization. Customers would use their smartphone to take a 3D scan and send their 3D body scan to our cloud server. Then they could order custom-fitted wearable products, such as sunglasses, goggles, etc., on our website and shopping App. We will develop algorithms that automatically design the 3D CAD model of the custom-fitted product for each user. And we will build

This journal post serves as the background explaining why we started this project. Individual Uniqueness First, we know the fact that everybody is unique. Here the uniqueness refers to the 3D body shapes. Although this is quite obvious to naked eyes, there’s also a science behind it, called Anthropometry, which is dedicated to studying the measurements and proportions of the human body. Researchers have been using 3D scanners to take more accurate body measurements since the 2000s. They collect 3D

Brief History Skelmet Inc was founded by James (Yu) Cao and Rain (Yuting) Wang in Boston in 2016. In the beginning, they were planing to make motorcycle helmets with 3D scanning and 3D printing technologies. Then they decided to make custom-fitted sport sunglasses. From 2016 to early 2018:  Rain and James held a crowd-funding campaign on IndieGoGo.com. They received a small amount of funding from Plug&Play and other investors. They participated in a lot of entrepreneur events in the US
