General Software Operation

  • Loading and saving data files

  • Data manipulation with mouse

  • Data flow (raw scan data – body model – measurements, landmarks, joints, etc.)

  • Measurement export to CAD systems

  • Printing options

Creating Custom Measurement Profiles for Automatic Measurements

  • Hundreds of automatic measurement possibilities

  • Creating custom measurement definitions on a per garment basis

  • Measurement definitions and options

    • Lower body, upper body, bust specific

    • Customize standard measurements to your definition

    • 2-tiered waist placement logic

    • “Extra” measurements offset from standard landmarks

    • Combination measurements (measurement calculator)

    • Body volume, body joints, body surface landmarks extraction

    • Miscellaneous additional measurements

    • Multiple instances of the same measurements using different definitions

    • Body widths and depths (front to back)

    • Front/back splitting of circumferences, selecting your own split line

    • Side seam placement and creating a custom split line definition

Batch Processing

  • Batch processing of raw data to body models

  • Batch processing of measurements from body models (only 1-3 seconds per scan)

  • Exporting Batch Processed data to Microsoft Excel

Manual Manipulation Features

  • View single slices of body data

  • Manual adjustment of landmarks, measure between landmarks manually

  • Manipulate and move/tilt the slice/measurement plane for manual measuring

  • Measuring Point to Point manually

Advanced Features

  • Body Shape Analysis using your own body shape parameters

  • Combination measurement editor (custom formulas in measurements)

  • Creating an output measurement form for e-mail or fax

  • Exporting 3D data for garment draping simulation on the body scan

New Features

  • New Automatic Measurements

    • Height to Top of Head - This new measurement is accessed in “Miscellaneous Measurements” section of Measurements Editor. The height reported will be the max height in the raw scan data (you may need to scan with a skull cap to get accurate height data).

    • New X and Y (forward and side) location measurements in the shoulders, elbows, and wrists. - These powerful measures enable automatic posture assessments in the arm and shoulder. For example, it is generally assumed that a stooped person has forward shoulders and a person with erect posture has rearward shoulders. There are special cases (especially hard to fit) where a person is stooped along the center of the body/spine yet has rearward shoulders (we call it stooped but horizontally erect), and the opposite case where a person has erect posture along the center of the body but has forward shoulders. These new measures in the shoulder can help determine these conditions.

      Elbow and wrist positions forward or back of the body can be used to determine arms that are held forward or rearward of what is a typical position in garment patterns. This condition, undetected, can cause unsightly buckling in the coat/jacket near the top of the sleeve where it joins the jacket body. A typical alteration for this condition is to rotate the sleeve body forward or back at the point it joins the jacket body.

  • Enhanced volumetric data extraction

    In additional to the option to extract the bulk volume of the scan data, an automatic volume extraction (to a Microsoft Excel compatible file) can be performed on the full torso yielding volume and surface area data on a 1 centimeter slice basis.

  • Measurement Enhancements
    Neck Point Improvements - The neck points (especially the back) have been enhanced to better deal with hair on the back of the neck and other scan quality issues.

  • Software Interface Enhancements

    Grid Projection feature for Screen Viewing and Printouts
    Grid Projection feature for Screen Viewing and Printouts

    A 1 inch or 1 cm grid (depending on units selection) projection feature can be enabled for screen viewing or for superimposing on your printouts under the “Tools” menu. This feature can assist in making visual shape or posture assessments from your scan data.

  • Data Converter Update

    The Data Converter tool Version 2.0 has a viewing window to assist in determining the correct translation, rotation, and scaling needed to convert data to a raw data format (.bin). Once the correct transformation parameters are set – files can be processed in batch mode. Input file format support now includes .obj, .wrl (VRML), .ply, and .dat (simple ASCII triads). Color information is supported with .ply files (see image above).
