Podiy: A System for Design and Production of Pouches by Novices
Abstract:
We have developed a system called "Podiy" that supports handicraft production of pouch-style bags using three-dimensional (3-D) computer graphics. We divide the making of a pouch into four steps: pouch design, fabric design, pattern design, and production, each supported by different panels. In pouch design mode, the user can design both the size and pattern. In fabric design mode, the user can design two types of checkered patterns. In cloth cutout mode, the user can choose from three ways of printing the pattern onto the fabric. In production mode, the system shows the user a 3-D illustration view using the user-designed fabrics. Using Podiy, even a handicraft novice can design an original pouch and produce it successfully.

Ostomy Care
An ostomy is a surgical procedure that creates an artificial opening from the intestines to the outside of the body, allowing for the rerouting of effluent. This opening is known as a stoma. A stoma usually protrudes above the skin surface, appearing pink or red, moist, and round, and it lacks nerve sensations.
There are different types of ostomies, including colostomies, ileostomies, and urostomies:
