Abstract: This invention belongs to measurement methods that can be used in light industry, when measuring the shape and size of the human body parts. Disclosed is a method, over the course of which, based on a series of photographs an image of a flat object of known shape and size is identified on each photograph. The body part area is isolated from the background in the image, and the area of an arbitrary body that does not belong to the projection of the human body part is cut out. Also disclosed is a method for searching an image of a flat object of known shape and size, its projection, and the camera location and orientation, over the course of which the predicted image of the flat object is compared to the real on. Here, the particle dynamics technique is used for isolating a human body part from the image background.

Abstract: A method for measuring shoe comfort level is provided. A 3D polygonal model of a foot is constructed from an array of images taken from multiple angles of the foot and leg. Each vertex point is loaded with foot anthropometric sensitive characteristics information. A 3D model of a shoe's inner space is constructed with a scanning device having various opening modes. Each of shoe inner space vertex points is complimented by shoe data such as material type, rigidity, structure, vamp and shoelaces. The 3D polygonal foot model and the vertex inner shoe space model are fitted together and the comfort level for the foot is defined with the simulation of movement.
