How to use AI to generate new images on e-commerce platforms

1. Output Effect

First, let's take a look at the types of images that our current AI-generated image feature can produce, as shown below:

Model Images with Background

Model Images with Solid Color Background

2. Operation Process

Before officially using AI to generate images for e-commerce, some preparatory work can be done in advance to improve efficiency and achieve better results when generating images.

Create Common Poses for the Brand: Build a library of frequently used poses. These can be sourced from the internet or from previous photoshoots that match the brand's style. Once suitable poses are found, adjust them accordingly and save them for future use.

Prepare Specific Scenes: For any specific scenes you want to use, build these in advance and store them in a scene library. This is especially helpful for simple studio setup scenes.

Test Specific Models: If you need a specific model, conduct tests on their image beforehand. Create "reference images" that are suitable for the brand's use and store them for future reference.

Once the above preparation is completed, follow the steps below to proceed.

Step-by-Step Process:

Step 1: Open the pre-prepared clothing project file.

Step 2: Open the simulation and switch to the appropriate pose.

Step 3: Select the appropriate scene.

Step 4: Choose ray tracing for rendering.

Step 5: Select the suitable lighting template.

Step 6: Select AI to generate the image.

3. Operation Tutorial

Open the pre-created clothing project file. If the current pose is not the one you need, enable the simulation in the top-right corner. Then, click on the model on the screen. In the right panel, locate the "pose" section, select a suitable pose, or manually adjust to create a new pose. Once the new pose simulation is complete, close the simulation.

Open resource library and select a suitable scene from the available options. Alternatively, you can manually create a scene.

Switch the rendering mode to "Ray Tracing" mode, and enable the new lighting material in the bottom-right corner. Select "High Quality" for rendering quality.

Important Tip 1: Your computer configuration needs to support an NVIDIA discrete graphics card of at least the 2060 model, with 3060 or higher recommended. Mac systems are not supported.

Important Tip 2: Ray tracing rendering currently does not support the following material types: fur, self-illumination, gems, glitter, subsurface scattering, and Substance materials.

Click on Tools▶Rendering to open the 3D Snapshot dialog box. After setting the desired dimensions, click the AI Generate Image button

Enter the AI Generate Image interface. Before selecting a model, please make sure to check the description in the red box. Follow the on-screen instructions step by step

Closing the AI Scene will generate the 2D scene built by the user in Studio as the background for the model image. Note: This option should not have transparency enabled, as it may result in poor visual quality.

In the Advanced Settings, enable AI Cloth feature. AI will optimize the details of the 3D garment to enhance its visual realism. Note: The public beta version may have some instability, so please use it with caution.

4. Other Important Considerations (Must Read)

It is recommended to first try the "Reference Designated Model Generation" (face-swapping) feature for better stability and results. The "Reference Feature Generation" is currently not a fully developed product feature.

1. For digital models, it is recommended to choose shoes that cover the toes, as this will prevent any toe deformation in the generated image.

2. To achieve a better application effect, please make sure to quickly edit the digital model’s features such as hair length, hairstyle, face shape, and skin tone. This will help make the AI-generated results more in line with your expectations.

3. You must use project files in .sporj format with pattern pieces included to generate images. Otherwise, the clothing will not be detected, and the image generation may fail or cause the garment to be significantly altered.

4. The maximum image size for rendering is 2048 x 2048 (this size is only available after updating to the latest version of Studio). PPI: 72.
