DTech Talks: Innovation with Fermat.app

The FIT DTech Lab is exploring emerging technologies and AI, and we are excited to continue our DTech Talks series designed to equip faculty with in-depth knowledge of the latest innovations. These sessions aim to demystify new technologies and explore how they are shaping the creative industries, from product creation to supply chain management. By empowering the FIT community, we can better prepare students for the future of work and foster new, innovative approaches to design and production.

In October/November we are featuring two powerful tools: Dtail.com and Fermat.app. We will explore how technologies like AI, virtual reality, and on-demand manufacturing are transforming industries. Beyond a simple demonstration, these sessions will provide a hands-on learning experience, giving you the practical skills to apply in your work.

On November 5, we will be presenting Fermat.app. Fermat is a company that provides an AI-powered toolbox for professionals in the fashion and apparel industry. Their platform helps users from the initial concept to the final consumer product. It includes a no-code tool editor that allows companies to create custom AI tools. A key feature is the ability to generate custom AI models for image creation using mood boards, materials, and the user’s own products. This technology helps to streamline creative processes, generate new ideas, create custom visual content, and work more efficiently from design to marketing. The platform can be used for rapid prototyping, creating mockups, enhancing product shots, and even turning sketches into videos.
