Posted: 09 Nov 2011 04:52 AM PST

Shopping from your home is perfect, especially if you want to avoid long lines at the stores, but there are items, such as clothes, that you can't purchase online due to fact that not all items have standard size, but luckily for you, there's a new service that could help you out.
UPcload is a new system that can make shopping for clothes online a lot simpler, simply by determining your body measurements. Unlike other similar services that require you to actually visit a store, UPcload works from the comfort of your home, and only thing that you need is an internet connection, webcam and a CD. In order to use UPcload, you just have to stand in front of the webcam and hold the CD in front of you, and that's it. UPcload simply compares your body with the CD, and after saving your measurement profile online, you can purchase clothes from shops that have partnered with UPcload.

UPcload is being tested with The North Face, and if everything goes well, we should see more stores supporting UPcload in the future.
