Abstract
Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to research an auto generation method of developing FFT image and image pattern for textile based on FFT theory.
Design/methodology/approach
In the research, a program was developed to generate FFT images using the FFT algorithm. The process of auto generation FFT image can be divided into the following steps: initializing the size of image, painting source image, giving the color pattern, transforming FFT image by FFT, designing mask template, and image pattern combining by point diagram. These image patterns can be used to apply on the textile.
Findings
The results showed that the FFT images can be used for textile designer directly. The FFT images can also be used as elements for textile image design such as clothing. The auto generation FFT images by FFT reflect different modern sense of beauty from traditional geometric images.
Research limitations/implications
There are many parameters that affect the art effect of FFT image generating by FFT algorithm. However, there is no discussion about the relationship between the parameters and art effect. Three dimension effects are not obvious in the simulation results by virtual clothing software.
Originality/value
The paper presents a fundamental understanding of the property of the FFT image generating by FFT algorithm and application method of the image pattern in clothing.
