Inquire NowA full body 3D scanner captures the external geometry of a human subject in a single rapid sweep, producing a dense point cloud that can be processed into a watertight mesh. The system uses structured light projection combined with high‑resolution stereo cameras to achieve sub‑millimeter accuracy across the entire body surface. This technology enables non‑contact measurement for ergonomics, apparel design, health monitoring, and security screening applications.
| Parameter | Typical Value |
|---|---|
| Scan Volume (H×W×D) | 2000 mm × 800 mm × 600 mm |
| Point Spacing | 0.5 mm |
| Accuracy (ISO‑9283) | ±0.8 mm |
| Scan Speed | < 12 s per full body |
| Light Source | Blue LED structured light, 405 nm |
| Camera Resolution | 2 MP global shutter, 30 fps |
| Power Consumption | 150 W typical, 220 V AC |
| Operating Temperature | 10 °C – 35 °C |
The subject stands on a calibrated platform while the scanner head moves vertically, projecting a sequence of fringe patterns. Each frame is captured by two synchronized cameras, and the phase‑shift algorithm computes depth for every pixel. The resulting point cloud is filtered for outliers, then meshed using a Poisson surface reconstruction model, yielding an STL or OBJ file ready for downstream CAD or animation software.
Typical data rates exceed 5 million points per second, and the system includes real‑time preview software that displays alignment quality and coverage percentage during the scan. Post‑processing tools allow automatic scaling, segmentation, and extraction of body measurements such as stature, shoulder width, waist circumference, and limb lengths.
In apparel manufacturing, the scanner provides accurate body‑size databases that reduce prototype iterations and enable mass customization. Ergonomics teams use the data to design workstations, protective gear, and vehicle interiors that match user populations, lowering the risk of musculoskeletal disorders.
Healthcare providers employ the technology for tracking body shape changes in longitudinal studies, prosthetic fitting, and burn scar assessment. Security facilities integrate the scanner for rapid threat detection, where the geometric profile can be compared against watchlists without physical contact.
The scanner head can be mounted on a fixed gantry, a robotic arm, or a portable tripod depending on facility layout and throughput requirements. Software development kits (SDK) are available in C++, Python, and LabVIEW, allowing integration with existing manufacturing execution systems (MES) or quality‑control platforms.
Optional accessories include a turntable for automated scanning of multiple subjects, a privacy enclosure with ambient lighting control, and a calibrated reference artifact for routine verification of accuracy.
Each unit undergoes a factory acceptance test using a traceable artifact with known geometry; deviation is recorded and must stay within ±0.5 mm before shipment. Field calibration kits include a checkerboard plate and a software routine that updates intrinsic and extrinsic parameters in under five minutes.
The manufacturer maintains an ISO‑9001 certified production line, and all optical components are sourced from suppliers with documented MTBF (> 20,000 h). Spare parts inventory is kept for critical modules such as the LED projector and camera sensors to minimize downtime.
