BACKGROUND Information on body size and shape is used to interpret many aspects of physiology, including nutritional status, cardio-metabolic risk and lung function. Such data have traditionally been obtained through manual anthropometry, which becomes time-consuming when many measurements are required. 3D photonic scanning (3D-PS) of body surface topography represents an alternative digital te...

The activity aimed to provide knowledge about anthropometry and the measurements illustration for researchers in Pusat Riset Teknologi Pengujian dan Standar (PRTPS – BRIN). During workshop, participants were provided with basic of anthropometry, standardization measurement, measurement illustrations how apply such data design, particular school furniture design. In addition, also demonstrated u...

OBJECTIVES The relative influences of hypoxia and other environmental stressors on growth at altitude remain unclear. Previous work demonstrated an association between peripheral arterial oxygen saturation (Sp O2 ) and anthropometry (especially tibia length) among Tibetan and Han children at altitude. We investigated whether similar associations exist among Andeans, and the patterning of associ...

–Anthropometric considerations play an important role in improving the efficiency of a person. Anthropometry of users is important in designing the products which suit with the user. Seating furniture plays an important role in making the workplace comfortable and suitable for the users. In the present study the classroom furniture’s of different colleges of Gulbarga were studied and analyzed o...

Performance in soccer has been associated with specific morphological characteristics. Few studies have simultaneously compared the relationships between physical fitness and body composition both sexes. This study aimed (i) to analyze differences anthropometric parameters, composition, sexes playing position players (ii) determine relationship among parameters according sex. A total of 50 (men...
