Image capture guide

Please obey the following basic rules for the image captures

Image quality is crucial
Without a good picture, the following simulation cannot be convincing
Customer face should fit into projected face line
Try to see the face roughly fitting to the face line when the image is snapped.
Camera lens at height of the eyes
Take care not to take the picture from below or above the customers head.
Smile
It is important that your customer like the image that you have taken of him. Also a likable facial expression is necessary.
Good lighting situation
Take care to perform the image capture in a well-lit room. Ofte, taking the picture in direction of the day light in front of a window helps (not in a back-lit situation!).
New capture
In case anything is not perfect with the captured image, just take a new one.

Adjustment

  • You can freely move and sqeeze the red sample hairstyle to fit it to the customer's face. This adjustment effects all hairstyles later on.

  • Switch to male mode

  • Switch to female mode

  • Cancel adjustment screen.

  • Accept the current position and size

  • You can also adjust the color of the captured image. This is helpful for instance in case of very cold room light.

  • By clicking the arrow symbols, the width and height of the sample hairstyles can be changed. R resets all changes made.

Atlas Mode

After image capture and adjustment you enter the atlas mode. Here you see the image of your customer shown in an overview. In the beginning only the image taken from front is shown.

Three perspectives: The possibility to capture and show your customer in three perspectives (front, half-profile, and profile) is new.

By clicking one of the six small images you get to the single view of that hairstyle in the corresponding perspective - provided the necessary image has already been captured.

If you have not captured an image for this perspective already, a short click will not have an effect.

With a longer click (keep pressed for two seconds) you can initiate the image capture for an additional perspective, or also delete a perspective.

  • Back to the main overview screen

  • Opens the filter screen.

Additional Perspective:

In this example the image for the half profile perspective is being captured.

Using All Three Perspectives

Here you see the result if all three images have been captured.

By clicking one of the six small images you get to the single view of that hairstyle in the corresponding perspective.

By long-clicking (keep pressed for two seconds) you can delete an image again.
