It takes just under a second for a head -- and less than two for a whole body -- to produce the data necessary to create a precise 3-D model of your shape.
This is the achievement of newly developed devices that, researchers say, are the world's fastest and most precise measurers of human bodies.
The National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST) and Research Institute of Human Engineering for Quality Life (HQL) have developed two such devices, one for measuring heads and another for whole bodies.
