Intellifit Launches Apparel Search Engine That 'Finds What Fits' at DEMO@15

Shopping for clothes that fit can be a frustrating and time consuming endeavour, which is why Intellifit Corporation, creators of the award-winning Intellifit System body scanner, today unveiled Find What Fits(TM) -- the first apparel search engine to help consumers find the brands and sizes that fit them best.

The Intellifit System and Find What Fits engine is being tested by select retailers and leading brands like Levi's(R), and will be officially unveiled to consumers in mid-March.

The body scanner uses safe, low power radio waves to accurately acquire body measurements directly through clothing in about 10 seconds. After being 'Intellifitted(TM)’, participants can navigate the on-board search engine kiosk to find garments and brands that best fit both their preferences and their measurements.

It is claimed that the system will save retailers large amounts of money and help the customer by reducing frustration, time spent shopping, and product returns.
