Google Launches Doppl, an AI-Powered App That Lets You Try On Outfits Virtually

Have you ever wondered how amazing it would be to try on an outfit in a picture virtually while sitting in your room and without having to merely imagine it in your head? That appears to be becoming a reality with Google’s most recent AI application. Google has launched a new AI app that allows you to virtually try on several outfits on your phone.

Dubbed Doppl, it is a new experimental app from Google Labs that simply lets you experiment with your style. With Doppl, users can simply upload a full-length image of themselves, and the underlying AI model processes the body shape and precisely superimposes various clothing pieces on them. This allows you to see how different styles and outfits will look on you before making a purchase.

In a blog post, Google announced the launch of this experimental app. “We’re introducing Doppl, a new experimental app from Google Labs to help you visualise how an outfit might look on you and explore your style," it wrote.

The tech giant in May announced the ability to virtually try on billions of clothing items just by uploading a picture. The latest app builds on these capabilities, introducing new experimental features such as the ability to “try on" ensembles using images or screenshots whenever inspiration strikes. Simply upload a photo of an outfit, and the app will handle the rest.

“With Doppl, you can try out any look, so if you see an outfit you like from a friend, at a local thrift shop, or featured on social media, you can upload a photo of it into Doppl and imagine how it might look on you. You can also save or share your best looks with friends or followers," Google mentioned.

The app combines user photographs or AI models with outfit images to create a comprehensive outfit visualisation. It also supports dynamic video animations for creating looks. Users can download their virtual try-ons and share them with their friends and family for feedback. The app is currently available on iOS and Android in the US. The tech giant hasn’t disclosed any details about expanding the app to other locations.
