Abstract

An apparatus for acquiring and processing data regarding physical attributes of a user in an accurate, repeatable and automated manner comprises a generally enclosed housing sized for receiving a user therein, the housing having an interior and an opening with a door for entry into and exit from the housing by the user, the door, when closed, preventing outside light from entering the housing. At least one structured light source is located within the housing for projecting structured light onto at least one portion of the body of a user to be scanned within the housing for obtaining spatial measurements of the at least one portion of the body of the user. At least one light detector is provided within the housing for detecting structured light reflected from the at least one portion of the body of the user and for generating electrical signals corresponding to the spatial measurements of the at least one portion of the body of the user. At least one source of controlled ambient light is located within the housing for emitting ambient light having controlled spectral components visible to the user
