New precise 3D scanner provides image in 12 seconds

Mar 8 2012

Reliable and highly accurate raw data is needed to use 3D images of a person or object, for example for body measurement. The VITUS smart body scanner from VITRONIC generates an accurate 3D image during a scan of only 12 seconds. VITRONIC will present the VITUS smart body scanner at the 3D Body Scanning Technologies Asian Workshop in Tokyo, Japan.

The VITUS smart body scanner is used for manufacturing tailor-made garments, collectinge anthropometric data for medicine and orthopedics, assessing occupational groups and in support and training for athletes, as well as providing raw data for virtual reality projects. This broad application spectrum is made possible by the scanner's high accuracy, proven in studies, and its performance.

High accuracy

VITUS smart is the solution for the highest accuracy: with a point density of up to 27 points per cm3, it delivers highly accurate data and minimizes hidden surfaces during the scan. In addition, the process is so robust that even different colored clothing or striking textures cannot diminish the quality of the 3D image.

Many years of experience

Whether its in science, orthopedics or ergonomics – wherever projects are worked on long-term, it is crucial to have a reliable partner at your side. VITRONIC, an internationally active machine vision company with 400 staff, has over 15 years of experience with body scanning technology. Many hundreds of scanners are installed around the world. VITRONIC is owner-managed and pursues long-term goals. That's why VITRONIC will remain a reliable partner with many years of experience into the future.

Hardware and software from one source

Depending on the purpose, the appropriate software may be needed alongside the hardware. Thanks to many years of cooperation with Human Solutions, the user in the clothing industry, for example, receives a complete package with the hardware and software which meets his purpose.

The “3D Body Scanning Technologies Asian Workshop” (www.hometrica.ch) will take place in Tokyo, Japan, from April 17 to 18, 2012:

National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST) Waterfront 3F; Digital Human Research Center; 2-3-26, Aomi, Koto-ku, Tokyo 135-0064, Japan.
