To determine the anthropometric measurements of our test subjects, we use a 3D body scanner at the IAD, which enables precise optical measurement of body dimensions. In accordance with the guidelines set out in DIN EN ISO 20685, this scanner produces precise 3D models of the entire human body within twelve seconds. In contrast to security scanners, e.g. at airports, which scan through clothing for dangerous objects, our scanner only scans surfaces.
Example applications:
- For the testing and further development of an algorithm for the automated adjustment of seats in passenger cars, we collected the body measurements relevant for seat adjustment from a large group of test subjects using the body scanner.
- In order to assess the minimum required working area of a medical device with regard to ergonomic posture and patient comfort, we measured test subjects with body measurements in the upper percentiles in our body scanner.
