Aim:
The main goal of this study was to asses the possibility of using mass production structured-light 3d scanner to asses human body posture.
Materials And Methods:
The study was conducted on a healthy 23 year old volunteer and a lay-figure. The experiment consisted of 28 3D scans, divided into three separate tests.
Results:
The largest deviation observed in the first two trials was 24.42 mm. While the largest deviation observed in the third trial was 49.91 mm.
Conclusions:
Data obtained with the mass production structured-light 3d scanner may have comparable or better performance than commercially available systems for the assessment of BP.
