METHOD FOR CONTACT-FREE MEASUREMENT OF STRAIGHT LINEAR SIZE FEATURES OF INDIVIDUAL'S FIGURE Russian patent published in 2005 - IPC

FIELD: method for measuring size features of individual's figure.

SUBSTANCE: method involves marking anthropometrical points on individual's body and obtaining photographic images of individual's body side, rear and front views; for taking photos of individual's side view, orienting foot's heel point along predetermined line extending in parallel with optical axis of objective and lying on platform for taking photos; for taking photos of individual's front and rear views, orienting foot's heel point along predetermined line extending perpendicular to optical axis of objective and lying on platform for taking photos; after producing of photographic images of individual's figure, measuring pattern coordinates thereof as distances from each of points to both axes of coordinates extending through center of photographic picture; calculating three-dimensional coordinates of these points through the use of measured values of their image coordinates on lateral, front and rear photographic image views.

EFFECT: increased precision in determining of straight linear individual's size features, convenient use and mobile measurement process.
