METHOD OF DYNAMICALLY CHANGING STITCH DENSITY FOR OPTIMAL QUILTER THROUGHPUT

摘要

A method of dynamically changing stitch density of a quilting pattern during sewing is provided. Embodiments of the invention include dynamically changing stitch density along an axis of a sewing pattern based on identifying sewing pattern elements, which may include line segments and arc segments. Each of the line segments and/or arc segments is assigned a dynamically adjusted stitch density based on analysis of each pattern element and/or adjacent element. An adjusted stitch density is assigned to portions of pattern elements that satisfy a threshold measurement for sewing with an adjusted stitch density. In embodiments, a standard stitch density, intermediate stitch density, or an altered stitch density is automatically assigned to each portion of a sewing pattern based on an analysis of threshold length of an element, a threshold angle of a portion of the element with respect to the axis, and/or the stitch density assigned to an adjacent element.

1. A method for dynamically changing stitch density along an axis of a sewing pattern, the method comprising:
determining a plurality of elements of a sewing pattern, the plurality of elements comprising at least one of one or more line segments and one or more arc segments; analyzing each of the one or more line segments and one or more arc segments; and dynamically adjusting a stitch density corresponding to at least one of the plurality of elements, wherein dynamically adjusting the stitch density comprises assigning an adjusted stitch density to at least one of the plurality of elements based on the analysis of each of the one or more line segments and one or more arc segments.
