Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to develop a relatively inexpensive and easily movable three-dimensional (3D) body scanner.

Design/methodology/approach

Multiple depth perception cameras and a turntable were used to form the hardware and a client-server computer network was used to control the hardware.

Findings

A portable and inexpensive yet quite accurate body scanner system has been developed.

Research limitations/implications

The turntable mechanism and semi-automatic model alignment caused some error.

Practical implications

This scanner is expected to facilitate the acquisition of 3D human body or garment data easily for various research projects.

Social implications

Many researchers might have an easy access to 3D data of large object such as body or whole garment.

Originality/value

Inexpensive yet expandable scanning system has been developed using readily available components.
