In many studies, the shapes of nanoparticles are characterized using transmission electron micrographs obtained at a single nanoparticle orientation and thus, the shape determination is based on viewing a single cross-sectional profile of the nanopar...

An optical technique has been developed for mapping the size and shape of the thoracoabdominal wall and the change in its shape with breathing. A fixed pattern composed of stripes of light is projected on to both sides of the trunk. These stripes become distorted when viewed from in front and behind, forming contours over the trunk surface. The contours are photographed and then encoded digital...
