A white light scanner can more accurately measure body contouring subjects than standard
anthropomorphic methods.
anthropomorphic methods.
A 3-D digital body camera that employs non-intrusive white light phase profilometry and 24
coordinated charge-coupled cameras scans and produces a "point cloud" image of the subject.
The result of the two-minute scan process is an accurate three-dimensional body model of the
subject, consisting of over 1.2 million surface points. The point cloud is compressed to
provide programmable measurement extraction profiles (MEP's) that automatically extracts
linear and circumferential measurements. Subjects are scanned and anthropometrically
measured pre-operatively, and at 3, 6 and 9 months post-op.
