Body measurements, on which the development of clothing is based, change during movement. This influences the fit and ergonomic wearing comfort of clothing. With 3-D scanners the movement-related variation in body measurements can be studied, and the range of motion (ROM) of the human body can be described by so-called functional measures, “movement-oriented body measurements.” A project has been initiated to research the movement-related change in body measurements in 93 subjects. The results show the average and the maximum measurement changes of the subjects in 10 postures and thus lay an important foundation for the development of clothes with high ergonomic wearing comfort. If the change in body surface during typical practical movement is ignored in the development of clothing, mobility restrictions may occur. The restriction of the range of movement can also be analyzed with 3-D scanners. However, static 3-D recording is only a replication of reality. The technical evolution from 3-D to 4-D (scanning in movement) allows the research of dynamic movements in the medium term. |
