Abstract

Anthropometric is the study of human body measurement. In recent decades, the process of anthropometry has traditionally been done by trained staff using manual tools like tape measures, calipers, and other equipment of different sizes and shapes. The benefits of using manual anthropometric methods include low cost and convenience, as they can be conducted during daytime. Nevertheless, in recent years, new three-dimensional anthropometric studies have emerged, where body measurements are taken quickly, without physical touch and utilizing 3D scanners. Manual measurement can be quite time-consuming and requires a significant amount of staff to measure all parts of the body. This study objective to study the use of CatiaV5 and Solidworks2020 in measuring upper body limbs, to investigate the error differences between manual and 3D measurements and to collect data using both conventional and 3D Camera Anthropometry System methods. To streamline the process, this study utilizes 3D measurement techniques, such as using software like CatiaV5 and Solidwork2020 for measurement. From the data that has been collected, a comparison between manual measurement and 3D measurement has been done to see if there is a significant difference between them. The conclusion of the study suggests that there are certain improvements in anthropometric measurements obtained using 3D software compared to manual measurements. As a result, this comparison may suggest potential changes in the future study of anthropometry.
