3D body scanning applications
Fitness and personal health
Fitness body scanners
Body scanners can be used in fitness clubs, gyms, and healthcare facilities. Fitness body scanners allow you to track the evolution of a person’s body through various 3D measurements such as body shape and posture.
Visualizing these evolutions on a 3D avatar is a strong motivational boost that can help increase gym members’ engagement and improve patient recovery processes.
Home body scanners
These 3D body scanners are consumer appliances made to monitor personal health and body shape as well as posture evolution, among other data points. Homebody scanners usually have a 360° rotating platform on which the user stands.
These 3D body scanners typically work with a smartphone app acting as a personal trainer, so users can easily track all their data and reach their fitness goals.
Fashion and apparel: made-to-measure clothing
The fashion and apparel industry was among the first to embrace 3D body scanning for several applications:
- Fast and accurate 3D measurements
- Made-to-measure clothing (custom clothing)
- Highly personalized recommendations
- Measurement surveys and anthropometric characterization
- Virtual fitting rooms
Users can obtain their own 3D avatar on their smartphone and use it to see how clothes fit without physically trying them on.
This is as useful for luxury, tailored clothing as it is for retail and e-commerce.
3D printed figurines and 3D photo
Also known as 3D selfies or 3D portraits, these miniature figurines of people are typically 3D printed from a 3D body scan. If you want to learn more about this application, you can visit our article dedicated to 3D printed figurines.
Here are a few 3D body scanner options that are designed for 3D figurines:
- Artec Shapify Booth
- Doob Dooblicator
- KODAK Full Body 3D Scanner
- Picanova 3D.me
- Pics3D Cobra

- Twindom Twinstant Mobile
Healthcare
Healthcare and medical sectors are filled with opportunities for 3D body scanning. From monitoring body shape and posture during pregnancy to making custom 3D printed prosthetics and more, body scanners are increasingly used for use in the medical field.
Body scanning can also be used to accurately monitor skin recovery in the case of burns or to detect skin diseases at an early stage, thanks to specific 3D imaging systems.
How do 3D body scanners work?
To obtain a full body scan, the person holds a pose for a few seconds, which is the time it takes for the 3D scanner to capture images from all angles. The 3D software then reconstructs the final 3D model of the body by “stitching” all of the images together, generating a highly detailed 3D model. Models can have colors and textures depending on the type of body scanner that’s used.
During the 3D capture process, the subject can either stand on a rotating turntable facing a fixed 3D body scanner, or stand still while the sensors located all around the body scanning booth capture images from all angles.
Closed 3D body scanning booth (or body scanning cabin)
A body scanning booth is a closed cabin that is rigged with cameras or 3D scanners. These full-body 3D scanners look a bit like regular fitting rooms.
Full body scanner with rotating platform or turntable
To use these body scanners, the person stands on a rotating table facing a 3D body scanner, typically a vertical unit.
During the scanning process, the turntable rotates 360°, allowing the subject to be captured from all angles. The 3D model is generated once the full rotation is complete.

Rules for 3D human scanning
For the greatest similarity of the resulting 3D copy with the original object and the successful implementation of the process of digitizing a human figure, several important rules must be observed.
By adhering to these recommendations, you can always achieve the highest quality and realistic results. Order a peel 3d scanner from iQB Technologies and you will be able to make a high-precision 3D model of yourself or any other person, and then print it using 3D printing.
All scanner models are in stock in our warehouse.
- Scan each body part once, especially when scanning a human face. If you scan the face several times in a row, the program will recreate the model as something in between all the received 3D scans.
As a result, you will get an option that is completely different from the original face of the person being scanned. - In the process of work, the person being scanned must absolutely not move - otherwise any movement, whether it be tilting, turning the head or stepping from foot to foot, can lead to image deformation. It is advisable to freeze in one position for a while and remain motionless until the very end of the procedure.
- If you want to create a figurine using 3D scanning, then you do not need to use additional light. To get a high-quality 3D figurine, LED flashes are enough.
- When using a turntable, its speed must be made as slow as possible. Thus, a 3D scan of a person will be much more accurate, and difficult places such as palms or ears will be much easier to scan.
The process of scanning a person with a 3D scanner
If you need to scan a person, you can order a scan of any part of the body from us at a bargain price.
The process of 3D scanning and modeling in software generally takes from 10 minutes to several hours.
The obtained data of 3D scanning of the human body is processed in specialized software: errors are corrected, problem areas are eliminated. The finished 3D model with an accurate texture and a clear rendering of the smallest details, if necessary, is sent for 3D printing. At the same time, a high-precision copy of a person can be obtained on a 3D printer, which in the future can become a memorable gift or souvenir. It is possible to scan with the transfer of the color of the object.
Also, the finished model can be used to create individual products that are ideally suited to the human figure.
It should be mentioned that 3D human scanning is completely safe, painless and does not harm the human body.
Scanner options
3D scanners for scanning a person are divided into:
-
Optical:
Optical 3D scanning technology uses a lamp flash designed to take measurements with the highest accuracy.
Projection distortions of the object are recorded by the scanner's video cameras, thereby allowing to determine the shape and dimensions of the scanned object, and then transferred to a specialized PC program for further processing.
Optical 3D scanners are fast, allowing you to scan people even in motion and in full growth.
Scanning a person with a 3D scanner using this technology takes from two minutes when using a special cell and up to 20 minutes when using a handheld scanner.
Most optical handheld devices are capable of color scanning and texture reproduction of the original model and various details, including jewelry and clothing.
-
Laser:
Traditional laser scanners, as a rule, are developed for the tasks of metrological measurements, and therefore require special reflective marks to be fixed on or near the object, the position of which is read by the device for precise positioning.
Some models of 3D scanners work in tandem with a tracking device (tracker) and do not require the use of reflective marks on the scanned object, for example, Creaform portable 3D scanners. Such devices are rarely used for digital measurements of moving objects, including the human body, since the concept of a metrological instrument rarely includes a color camera to capture the texture of an object. However, when it is necessary to produce more accurate models, for example, for orthopedics, prosthetics or the creation of exoskeletons, specialists prefer 3D laser scanners. In addition, this technology allows you to scan shiny, mirror and other complex surfaces, unlike optical three-dimensional equipment.
iQB Technologies offers to buy hand-held 3d scanners in Moscow or order a human scanning service at an affordable and favorable price.
Our specialists guarantee fast delivery and high-quality service of the presented equipment.
Texel Portal 3D Scanner
Body size and body type are key buyer parameters in the fashion industry. But anthropometric indicators are not constant, their change is influenced by many different factors. Accurate data is essential for the production of clothing, and modern technologies such as 3D body scanning, which provide standardized measurements, help to achieve this. We talked with Maxim Fedyukov, CEO of Texel, which developed the unique Texel Portal 3D scanner.

– The Texel company (a resident of Skolkovo and Technopolis Moscow) together with an information-analysis system for the population of the RFPO, together with with the current body typology in 3D. Maxim, please tell us what reasons prompted you to take such a step?
- Texel has been in existence since 2014 and is engaged in development and research in the field of 3D scanning, modeling, computer vision and machine learning (neural networks and similar approaches).
Our equipment and software, which has no analogues in the world, allows you to measure more than a hundred dimensional features of a person using his 3D model. Since the tasks of the light industry of the Russian Federation require regular measurements of the population in order to clarify the typical sizes, as well as for the correct formation of a size slide of domestic brands, in this direction we cooperate with the RSPO and the Ministry of Industry and Trade, in practice proving that the technologies and developments of Texel can applied to a wide variety of tasks. We are driven by the desire to assist the domestic industry and introduce our developments directly into the industry.
- Could you, for our readers, who are far from fully versed in the intricacies of clothing production technology, briefly describe how the process of designing clothes and making patterns takes place, how important is population measurement data?
- You need to start from the starting point - collecting the necessary data.
