“…These images are subsequently integrated to form a three-dimensional image. This method utilizes a phase-stepping technique that improves overall image resolution and rate of data acquisition when compared to laser-triangulation imaging methods, but is not able to capture color images (Demers et al, 1997). Once the 3D image is acquired, the [TC] 2 scanner uses a proprietary measurement software system that is able to extract over 100 predetermined anthropometric dimensions, as well as allowing user definition of other special dimensions.…”

Describes research designed to examine the effects of subject positioning on the accuracy of body scan data. A body measurement system developed by the Textile Clothing Technology Corporation was used to acquire two scans from each of 72 subjects. The subjects were instructed to continue to breathe normally and stand with their feet shoulder‐width apart. The two scans were compared and statistical analysis was performed to determine the precision of the results and whether this lack of standardization affected the data. Physical measurements were also obtained from each subject and served as a basis for comparison to the scanned measurements. Since physical measurements are the current accepted “true value”, these measurements determined the level of accuracy of scanned data. Three separate scans of 72 different subjects were taken at various levels of breathing and at various foot positions to determine the effect of the variables. This study certainly indicates that respiration and foot placement has a significant effect on body scan data. It was established that the scan data rendered by the software does have precision, but lacks accuracy when compared against physical measurements. This may be owing to the inaccuracies of the physical measurement process or to differences in measurement location between the anthropometrist and the 3D measurement extraction software. Information detailing the level of accuracy and precision that can be obtained with scanning software and how respiration and subject positioning can affect the data are included.

“…[3][4][5] As Table 1 demonstrates, researchers typically developed 3D scanners for measurement (geometry) or visualization (texture), using photogrammetry, lasers, or millimeter wave. Several scanners are now available (http://3dlinks.com and http://simple3d.com).…”
