Abstract
In digital anthropometry there are two components present: a 3D Scanner that acquires a 3D model, and a software that obtains the measurements from this 3D model. Both influence the quality of the measurements. Given that, the purpose of this paper is to test a new method of collecting anthropometric measures using 3D scanners and readily available software. The experiment is divided in to three moments: first, the measurements from a participant are taken manually, then the same measurements are taken using the Kinect 360 and the software RecFusion Pro and 3D Measure up, and finally these are compared. As a result, we found some differences in the values obtained but all of this paper’s results were better than the ones found in previous research. This demonstrates that readily available low-cost hardware and software can obtain anthropometric data agreeable with applications that entail lower precision (such as clothing).
