What is 3D optical imaging and how does Styku use it?
Overview
Section titled “Overview”Styku uses 3D optical imaging — a non-invasive technology that captures a three-dimensional image of the body. The client steps onto a rotating turntable while a camera photographs the body from all angles. Styku’s AI-driven software then processes those images to produce both anthropometric and body composition measurements in under one minute.
What Styku Measures
Section titled “What Styku Measures”Styku captures two distinct categories of body measurements:
- Anthropometrics — physical dimensions of the body, such as circumferences (e.g., waist, hips) and lengths (e.g., inseam, torso).
- Body composition — estimates of what the body is made of, including fat mass, lean mass, and bone mass.
Most measurement devices measure either anthropometrics or body composition. Styku measures both in a single scan, giving practitioners a more complete picture of a client’s health.
- Styku is intended for use by trained practitioners. Results should be interpreted alongside other clinical information where appropriate.
- Bone mass is estimated as part of Styku’s body composition output because Styku uses a DEXA-based algorithm (see related article below).
