Various techniques may be used to estimate body composition.
Computer vision and sensor fusion will detect whether seat belts are fastened and estimate body size to calibrate airbag deployment.
Femoral head diameter is commonly used to estimate body mass from the skeleton.
It is still unknown which is the most accurate method to estimate body composition in CKD.
Additionally, a correlation between the body shapes and the anthropometric parameters was learned in the statistical analysis phase to estimate body shapes from intuitive and semantic parameters.
The Broselow tape was designed to estimate body weight and tracheal tube size on the basis of the body length of emergency paediatric patients.
At present both forensic scientists and anthropologists lack adequate data and methods to estimate body size and shape from hominin skeletons.
To be more flexible and general compared to the current software provided in the literature, an interactive software LSSA_CAU is developed to estimate body measurements of livestock based on 3d point clouds data.
This study combined the binocular stereo vision system with the LabVIEW development platform to analyze and estimate body size and live body weight using 10 landrace aged from 14 to 25 weeks old at the end under indoor farm condition.
They used femur length of over 400 species of fossil creatures spanning 100 million years to estimate body mass and tracked how body size changed in the two groups from the time of the Permian mass extinction to the heyday of the biggest Jurassic dinosaurs about 150 million years ago.
While the new study used the femur lengths of therapsids and archosauromorphs to estimate body mass, Theodor says that the lack of modern, closely related species to the therapsids and archosauromorphs means that the estimates of body mass will be rough and dependent on how we reconstruct the posture of the ancient animals.
