Embodiments herein provide methods, apparatus and computer systems comprising an input unit for inputting one or more data sets to be processed comprising a capacitance measuring device configured to measure one or more conductive elements on a sensor plane and provide a corresponding data set of measurements obtained from the conductive elements. A computing unit is coupled to the input unit and for processing the data sets; the computing unit comprises at least one processor with non-transient memory. An output unit is connected to the computing unit for outputting data received from the computing unit. A computer program stored in memory comprising instructions that cause the computer to isolate and discharge conductive and reference impedance elements, perform a charge transfer to the one or more conductive elements on the sensor plane, measure the relative difference between the conductive elements and reference impedance element, and store measurements in non-transient memory.

The ability to capture an undistorted image of the foot or foot and ankle is essential to the production of effective custom orthotics and shoes. This patent solves the problem of providing an accurate three-dimensional measurement of an undistorted foot/ankle by using a system involving the automated and controlled orbit of a point cloud capture device around the foot/ankle with the foot/ankle in a non-weight bearing position so as to capture a three-dimensional image.

Disclosed is a technique for use in generating and delivering 3-D printed wearables via the use of body image data where the body is in under multiple physical conditions. Some embodiments include further body part data including videos of sequences of motion, static images, both 2-D and 3-D modeling, and user preference. Users take videos and/or photos of parts of their body as input into a custom wearable generation application. The body photos are subjected to a precise computer vision (CV) process to determine specific measurements of the user's body and the stresses.

To provide a body measuring device and a body measuring system that can be easily handled by even a user who has no special size-taking technique and can be used repeatedly.

The body measuring device 10 is constituted by a main body part 1 made of an expandable material and forming a portion except for a foot bottom portion of a footwear, a foot bottom part 2 made of the expandable material and forming the foot bottom portion of a footwear shape, an insertion opening part 3 forming an opening serving as an insertion opening of socks and a measurement processing part 4 that executes processing or the like on measured values of a size and shape of the user's foot.

This disclosure relates to the technique for acquiring a three-dimensional image of the human body for the purpose of manufacturing customized orthopedic braces.

Provided herein are devices useful in processing fat for fat grafting and for delivering fat tissue grafts to a patient. Also provided are devices and methods for fat grafting and for treatment of plantar fasciitis.

Systems and processes for measuring and sizing a foot are provided. In one exemplary process, at least one image of a foot and a horizontal reference object from a first point of view is captured. A portion of the foot may be disposed against a vertical reference object. The at least one image may be displayed, where one or more camera guides are overlaid on the at least one displayed image. In response to aligning the one or more camera guides with one or more of the horizontal reference object and the vertical reference object, a measurement of the foot based on the at least one captured image from the first point of view is determined.

A method, system, and device for controlling internal systems within a vehicle based on user preferences is disclosed. The method includes detecting, by a floor mat, presence of a user seated on a seat within the vehicle. The method further includes capturing, by the floor mat, at least one user characteristic associated with the user in response to detecting presence of the user. The method includes controlling, by the floor mat, at least one internal system within the vehicle based on the at least one user characteristic, wherein the floor mat communicates with a central controller in the vehicle to control the at least one internal system.

An article of sports apparel such as an outsole for a shoe may be formed based on a computational traction profile. The computational traction profile is built based on received sensor data, such as that obtained by a frustrated total internal reflection (FTIR) system having a surface on which an individual may perform a movement. The sensor data is obtained while a different article of sports apparel of the same type is worn by the person during an activity. The sensor data may be used to alter a visual outsole pattern, traction features such as projections or recesses, for example. One or more of the position, height, cross-sectional shape, and the like of the respective projections and recesses may be varied along the surface of the outsole in response to the computational traction profile.

Methods, systems, and non-transitory computer readable medium for foot differentiation scoring pertaining to an individual's differences in their two feet. A method includes receiving, from sensors of a scanning device, pressure and/or other measurement data corresponding to feet of a user. The method further includes preprocessing the pressure and/or measurement data. The method further includes generating, based on the preprocessed pressure and/or measurement data, a foot differentiation score based on differences between a left foot and a right foot of the user. The foot differentiation score may assign or correspond to a numerical rating based on how different the user's left foot and right foot are from each other.
