3D scanner enables digital garment archives

What if garment archives could be situated in digital environments and serve as data sources for generative AI systems?  Recent investments in the portable 3D scanning device Shining 3D EinScan Rigil enable the creation of highly realistic digital twins of physical garments that capture not only garment shape and textile surface characteristics but also subtle material expressions such as creases and folds. Utilising these digital twins as data sources for AI-supported design ideation may facilitate more faithful translations of garment expressions that are specific to a brand’s design language. We are excited to explore the opportunities this presents, as well as its potential implications for future design practice in the fashion industry.

AI to enhance future learning and skills development

Johannes Sahlin, a researcher within TexAI, has had a paper accepted to the international conference DESRIST 2026 on how generative AI can support the production of digital educational materials. The research demonstrates how AI can be used to transform course content into lectures, presentations and videos, while teachers retain responsibility for quality, pedagogy and content. Within TexAI, the technology is now planned to be explored further to strengthen skills development and learning in the transformation of the textile sector. DESRIST 2026 brings together close to 200 researchers in information systems in Germany in June. Johannes Sahlin contact page

New doctoral education in Information Systems

The University of Borås has been granted the authority to award doctoral degrees in a new programme in Information Systems – an important step for research at the intersection of textiles, digitalisation and artificial intelligence. The doctoral programme complements existing programmes within the strategic research area of Textiles and Fashion: Textile Technology, Textile Design and Textile Management. The initiative will form a central part of TexAI and aims to strengthen AI-driven innovation and sustainable transition within the circular textile industry. The first doctoral students in Information Systems are expected to be recruited this autumn.
