Patent number: 11875468Abstract: Three-dimensional (3D) image modeling systems and methods are disclosed herein for determining respective mid-section dimensions of individuals. Digital image(s) depicting at least a mid-section portion of an individual are obtained. A fit finder application (app) determines a rough 3D model based on the digital image(s). A parametric 3D model of a predefined individual is mapped to the rough 3D model in virtual 3D space to generate a fitted 3D model indicative of a physical size of at least the mid-section portion of the individual in ordinary space. A mid-section dimension of the individual is then determined based on the fitted 3D model.Type: GrantFiled: June 8, 2022Date of Patent: January 16, 2024Assignee: The Procter & Gamble CompanyInventors: Andrew James Sauer, Scott Kendyl Stanley, Alexander Eberhard Unger, Brad S. Hoekzema
