CISUTAC’s decision support tool for post-consumer textiles on reuse and repair

The work conducted led to two main outcomes: the creation of a unique dataset comprising 30,000 PCT garments , and the development of an AI model. The dataset includes images and annotations for each garment, capturing the complexities introduced by wear, tear, and alterations during the user phase. Unlike existing datasets that focus on pre-consumer textiles, this collection provides a more realistic foundation for developing digital sorting solutions.
