The effect of arm posture on the scan-derived measurements.

Abstract

Among various three-dimensional (3D) scanning anthropometric surveys, the inconsistent arm postures for scanning may lead to incompatible measurement results. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the effect of arm posture on the scan-derived measurements. The two arm postures in concern are the one with palms facing inward and the one with palms facing backward. The experimental results reveal that the two postures do not differ from each other in obtaining the scan-derived measurements for most body dimensions except for those related to the upper torso. Besides, the scan-derived measurements can be more precise between the two postures than the manual measurements. Further, it was found that being scanned with palms facing backward can contribute to the smaller difference between the scan-derived measurements and the manual measurements and the better image quality. Overall, the arm posture with palms facing backward is considered as the preferred posture for 3D whole body scanning.
