Claim 14:
15. Determination system (18) for producing a custom-tailored, skin-tight, knitted garment (31) for a limb (3) of a person, comprising:
a first interface (20) for receiving a three-dimensional dataset (11) of the limb (3) acquired using a 3D scan device (21),
a second interface (23) for receiving a height value describing the dimension of a knitting row (9) in the lengthwise direction of the limb (3) and a total length value for at least one lengthwise section (4) of the garment (31),
a first determination unit (25) for determining a number of knitting rows (9) for the at least one section (4) of the garment (31) by dividing the total length value by the height value,
an evaluation unit (26) for evaluating the three-dimensional dataset (11) to derive a circumference information describing the circumference of the limb (3) along at least the length of the limb (3) covered by the at least one section (4),
a second determination unit (27) for determining, from the circumference information, a circumference value for each n-th knitting row (9) or each knitting row (9) except every n-th knitting row (9), wherein n is a natural number, in the at least one section (4),
a third interface (29) for providing the circumference values and/or for production values derived therefrom.
