FitBot Robotic Mannequin

FitBot Robotic Mannequin

Online clothing shopping seems convenient but since you can’t actually try out the goods until they arrive, the return rates are extremely high and costly for retailers and consumers and the environment. Fits.me has come up with a very clever solution in the form of a FitBot, a male and female robotic mannequin capable of replicating 2,000 body shapes. Not only the FitBot is a clever idea and as proven to reduce the return rates and increased the sale but the product in itself is astonishingly well executed to the point where it’s slightly disturbing to watch. We thought that this interactive robot would be a great art installation. Wouldn’t it be neat to see it mirror the shape and size of passers-by?
