Reebok introduces AI-powered design for sneakers

Introduction

Generative AI continues to find vast applications across major industries. Reebook, an industry leader in sports wear is the latest to feature an AI-powered product. Rebook makes sneakers and in this latest introduction, they partnered with Futureverse to allow customers to create and customize the appearance of their sneakers. AI is at the root of this product.

If you are a long-term customer of Reebok, you probably already have a number of sneakers from them. But this new service is different. You can now design your own sneaker and have it made and delivered by Rebook. Its no longer a one-design-for-all approach. Instead, everyone can now apply a personal touch to how their own sneakers look. Lets go into it a little.

Look different with AI-designed sneakers

If you would like to imprint a memory forever on your sneaker, then you will probably love this cool Reebook experience.

The process of creating your own customized sneaker starts with a favorite picture. It could be an image of the ocean you took while vacationing, or your anniversary cake. Whatever image the user wishes, the image could be used. Once you choose that personal image, it is sent to Reebok through instagram. Their AI tool then uses the image to design your sneakers in digital format. From there, the user could design to sell their creation, order the physical sneaker to be made by Rebook or simply share the design on social media to inspire others.

The name of this project is Reebok impact and the aim is to flow with the limitless creative potential of AI to personalized fashion. The team behind it hopes to empower customers not only to create lasting memories, but to also look different and unique.

How to start

Reebook Impact is created to work on popular image social media Instgram. There is a dedicated account for it. Customer simply have to send their preferred image to @ReebokImpact. Then, AI is used to render the design based on detailed elements of the image like color and form.

An editor could be used to enhance the appearance and other details of the digital work. Once the user is fine with the final product, then they could decide what next to do with it. At the very best, the customer could let Reebok make a sneaker based on that digital model and delivered the finished product to the customers address.

Now anyone can turn an innocent-looking image into a stylish and personalized sneaker, one of its kind in the whole world.

Why Reebok Impact is a revolution

The world of AI continues to inspire lots of innovation elsewhere. It is interesting to see the immense possibilities that AI has brought. Reebook impact will deliver a lot through this project including:

• Limitless personalization: You do feel awkward when you step out and see another person wearing the same shoe or cloths as yours. Everyone wants appear unique and different. Companies today do mass production of everything, personalization is just for the rich. With Reebok Impact, everyone has the opportunity to stand out from the crowd.

Rebok Impact will use this AI service to drive uniqueness and creativity. Your images are unique ad when they are used to make your sneaker, only you owns that design. Thats a high level of personalization.

• Monetizing creativity: This is a strong example of how creativity and AI could turn into an avenue for rewards. Not everyone that makes the digital designs will go on to produce them. Some will turn them up for other uses. The digital designs could be converted into an NFT and sold in the market. In this way, the creator can make money from creating the designs to sold to others.

There are still many designers that are just out there to have fun and inspire others. So they share their designs on platforms where people can use them for free.

• In-game assets: Web3 games allow uses to create or import their own in-game assets. So in a game like football, or racing where the character needs to wear a sneaker or sports shoe, the game could use a design they have made from Reebok impact to personalize their digital assets. Reebok IMpact is working with some gaming applications to make their digital sneakers available for in-game use.

Apart from using the designs as gamers, creators could also make sneakers to be sold as an asset in games. This is also another level of monetization that customers could take advantage of. They make the sneaker designers and try to partner with web3 game-developers that will either buy them and make them part of the game assets, or allow them to be featured in the game assets market. These are ways to get rewarded from this creative work.

Conclusion

Reebook impact is the next big thing in the world of AI and sports. The project is empowering personalization and rewarding creativity. Most important, projects like this are creating real-life usecases for AI and bridging the gap between digital assets and physical life.
