Roll To Bag

By implementing the 3D and augmented reality applications to an e-commerce web site the consumers will have an inspiring shopping experience and extremely fast response to their shopping needs. This will be assured by the ‘from-ROLL-to-BAG’ production line, which enables production and delivery of customized orders rapidly. Inventories will consist of undyed fabrics and accessories, which can be flexibly used for the customized products, thus avoiding the problem of having large stocks of ready-made products normally needed by e-commerce.
