Inquire NowA 3D body scanning mirror redirects structured light onto a subject and returns the pattern to a camera for depth extraction. The mirror’s surface figure and coating determine measurement accuracy by preserving wavefront integrity across the scan volume.
The system projects a known fringe pattern; the mirror reflects it onto the human body with minimal distortion. The camera captures the deformed pattern, and software reconstructs 3D coordinates via triangulation. To avoid bias, surface figure error must remain below λ/10 at the operating wavelength.
| Parameter | Typical Value | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Diameter (clear aperture) | 50 mm – 200 mm | Custom sizes available upon request |
| Surface figure (PV) | < λ/10 @ 632.8 nm | Ensures low wavefront distortion |
| Reflective coating | Enhanced aluminum, SiO₂ overcoat | Reflectivity > 92% across 400‑700 nm |
| Mounting interface | Kinematic mount with M3 threaded holes | Allows precise tilt and tip adjustment |
| Operating temperature | -10 °C to 50 °C | Stable in typical indoor environments |
Suppliers can adjust curvature radius to match the system’s field of view, apply wavelength‑specific coating stacks, and integrate alignment features such as fiducial marks or threaded inserts. Customization follows the required measurement volume, working distance, and target resolution.
In apparel manufacturing, the mirror enables rapid capture of body silhouettes for pattern making, reducing reliance on manual measurements. Fitness and wellness centers use it for repeatable, high‑resolution progress tracking. Healthcare providers apply the data for prosthetic fitting and posture analysis where sub‑millimeter accuracy is essential.
Each mirror undergoes interferometric surface figure testing, coating reflectivity verification, and dimensional inspection. Documentation includes a test report with measured PV and RMS values, coating uniformity data, and a certificate of conformance. Traceability is maintained via lot numbers linked to raw material certificates.
