    Technology is now considered to be at the heart of the textile, apparel and fashion industry’s emergence towards a new era. Digitalization of fashion retailing and technology based manufacturing process improvement will create a new world of supply chain in the post-pandemic world.

    There have been numerous researches on 3d printing, digital printing, block chain and automatic defect detection in the recent years. Researchers have predicted the implementation of these technologies will reshore textile and apparel industry in the western countries like UK, Germany and USA as well. The quality of products and skills of workforce will be crucial for Asian countries to continue their progress in the textile and apparel market. Samit Chkraborty’s research on technology development and implementation aims to improve the manufacturing process and product quality as well as ensuring sustainability in textile manufacturing and retailing process. According to him these research will play crucial role in the near future in including textile manufacturing and fashion retailing processes as part of Internet of Things (IoT) and industry 4.0.

    His doctoral research is based on automatic defect detection in fabric during printing using image classification. His research used fabric image dataset containing fabric images with and without defects. He developed a machine-learning model that can automatically identify defect in the fabric images. The main convolutional neural network algorithm used here will classify the two major types of print defects in fabric. This type of research can be used for real-time fabric defect detection. The extension of this research will be predicting the digital print fabric quality and visual appearance using a statistical Design of Experiment.

    Besides these, his research “3D printing technology of polymer-fiber composites in textile and fashion industry: A potential roadmap of concept to consumer” published in high impact journal Composite Structures explored different application of this cutting edge technology in textile and fashion industry. The research study provided an integrative review of the existing literature to identify current state-of-the-art additive manufacturing methods for application in the textile and fashion industries The paper presented described the evolution of 3D printing technology and its continuous diffusion into different industries including textile and fashion industry.

    It also stated the materials and process descriptions relevant to manufacturing 3D printed textile and fashion products. The study showed the use of popular 3D printing method named as inkjet printing for producing garments and accessories using multiple materials. Inkjet printing is also widely in making electronic textiles, where the sensors or circuits are printed on the textile fabric.

    The paper reported that fashion designers in their innovative fabric used this multi-material technology and exhibited them in different fashion weeks. The paper proposed the future applications of this disruptive technology in smart textiles such as electronic and protective textiles.

    Textile and fashion industry is known as late adopter of technology. Technology, data and sustainability driven research are needed to renovate the entire textile and fashion industry supply chain. Moreover, it is expected that the technology and big data based manufacturing and retailing process will shape the post-COVID-19 pandemic age.
