description | More than half of the people on the planet use eyewear to correct or protect their vision. Eyewear products that fit poorly cause discomfort, dizziness, or blurred vision. One method to improve fit is to create custom-fit eyewear frames on an individual basis. In this paper we propose a new parametric design method to customize the eyewear frames based on individual 3D scanned data of head-and-face measurements. We take the eyeglasses frame as the case study to establish the landmark-product relationship and develop the parametric algorithm in Rhino/Grasshopper software. The results of the case study can generate custom-fitted eyeglass frame models for the two selected subjects, one 33% percentile Asian female and one 90% percentile Caucasian male. The future study will continue validating the eyewear frame fit and optimizing the parametric design method. |
