abstract various studies carried out on different photo anthropometry, but each one had some deficiencies which during the years they have been resolved. the objective of this paper is to test the efficiency of two-dimensional image processing software in photo anthropometry of hand. in this applied research, 204 office workers and industrial workers were selected. their hands were measured by ...

BACKGROUND The aim of this study is to validate a new three-dimensional craniofacial stereophotogrammetry imaging system (3dMDface) through comparison with manual facial surface anthropometry. The null hypothesis was that there is no difference between craniofacial measurements using anthropometry vs. the 3dMDface system. METHODS Facial images using the new 3dMDface system were taken from six...

− We developed a protocol for the assessment of manual wheelchair set-up and propulsion in a common clinical motion analysis laboratory. We also designed a device to detect hand contact on handrim. In a first phase, we took anthropometric and wheelchair geometric measures. Later, subjects propelled the wheelchair and, based on the experimental data on subjects’ movements and their effect on whe...

This paper introduces a device, algorithm and graphical user interface to obtain anthropometric measurements of foot. Presented device facilitates obtaining scale of image and image processing by taking one image from side foot and underfoot simultaneously. Introduced image processing algorithm minimizes a noise criterion, which is suitable for object detection in single object images and outpe...

In this paper we report the results of the SHREC 2014 track on automatic location of landmarks used in manual anthropometry. The track has been organized to test the ability of modern computational geometry/pattern recognition techniques to locate accurately reference points used for tape based measurement. Participants had to locate six specific landmarks on human models acquired with a struct...
