Autodigitizing is an advanced embroidery-stitch design system for Microsoft Windows95,98,2000 and Windows XP that has revolutionized the way user design their embroidery stitches.
With autodigitizing, the user can employ desktop computers to quickly finish his designs, high quality designs which a year ago were possible only by using a digitizer or mouse manually. In other words, autodigitizing helps the user to create, edit, calculate, and save designs, automatically.
Once the image or design has been created or imported into autodigitizing, the program can automatically calculate the stitch for your design an ability that places autodigitizing far ahead of its competitors.
Autodigitizing provides a new level of creativity for embroidery designs:
· Automatic scanner input with image enhancement
· Multiple methods of image insertion and editing
· Dual views for Shape Depiction and stitch generation
· Automatic image analysis for stitch type, stitch region generation, and sequencing
· Convenient and powerful editing tools
· Object based 32 bit design for Windows95 and Windows XP
· Area list for manual sequence change, view, and operation control
· True 3D virtual reality viewing
· Ability to automatically convert millions of clipart and thousands of fonts into embroidery stitch
· Photo realistic 3D image rendering
Autodigitizing is the core system for stitch generation, optional PhotoStitch, FeatureStitch systems should be used to process photos before using autodigitizing.
