A Body Measurement Method Based on the Ultrasonic Sensor

摘要

To realize the automatic measurement and improve the efficiency of the body measurement in the garment customization, we propose a body measurement method based on the ultrasonic sensor. The novel measurement structure and method are proposed to achieve the accurate bust, waist, and hip (BWH) information. First, the depth information is measured by the ultrasonic sensor arrays. The sensors should capture the front and back depth of the key body parts, the depth information and the certain position of sensors can generate the space coordinates. Second, the space coordinates are fitted with the quintic function to generate the curves. Third, the front curve, back curve, and the estimated parameter constitute the finial BWH data. Experimental results indicate that the proposed method can achieve accuracy of95.6%.
