Customizations of women bullet-proof jacket through 3D design process

In today’s scenario many personnels including police officers, security guards, field journalist etc. made itmandatory to wear ballistic protection garments while on duty. In order to give the required protection, mostof the ballistic protecting garment (vests) were developed with higher number of fabic layers.The developmentof such garment using higher number of layers would also result higher weight and discomfort to the wearerwhile wearing in every condition throughout the day. However, the ballistic protection garment should bedesigned considering not only ballistic resistance toward projectile penetration but also reasonably light inweight and flexible to provide comforts. The current study brings a new techniques through 3D design processto develope the women bullet proof jackets on the women adaptive mannequin. The jacket can be worn alongwith the ballistic vest or can be removed to attain the different protection level at the different duty situations.The jacket can removed in order to increase the comfort and reduce the weight of the protection garment whilethe personnel is not in very dangerious duty areas. However, the designed jacket can also be wear along withthe ballistic vest to give the required protection for the personnel at the very dangerous situations.
