The software algorithms
developed with the instrument allowed direct transformation
of the textile surface parameters into finishing
data, that is, a wrinkle recovery factor that ranged
between 0 for smooth surfaces and 128 for maximum
wrinkling. Since the data obtained need to be correlated
to standardized AATCC 3-D standard replicas, a correlation
between the two data sets was performed. The
blind test and five specimens with increasing wrinkle
factors are shown in Figure 7
