Title:
BODY SHAPE ANALYZING METHOD AND APPARATUS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2020/085699
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
An embodiment of the present invention provides a body shape analyzing apparatus and method in which a plurality of markers are used with an exact analysis algorithm to precisely analyze the body shape of a person to be measured, so as to prevent a disease due to body shape imbalance and allow the person to be measured to maintain an ideal body shape suitable for him or her. In the apparatus of the embodiment, a camera is configured to capture images of the front, lateral, and rear sides of a person to be measured, to which the markers are attached, and a laser foot plate is configured to display the measurement position of the foot of the person to be measured, by using a laser beam. A calculation means receives front, lateral, and rear side images of the person to be measured from the camera, recognizes the markers in the images, analyzes muscle imbalance for each type of disease, and outputs a result of the analysis to a display. The calculation means may comprise: an image input unit; a marker recognizing unit; a disease-specific estimation unit for analyzing an image in which a marker is recognized, according to a disease-specific analysis algorithm to estimate the muscle imbalance of the person to be measured; and a correction information generating unit for generating customized information for correcting the imbalance of the person to be measured according to a result of the estimation.
