What is BodyScan?
BodyScan is a scan technology where a front and side capture of a user's body is used to determine body circumference and body composition measurements.
BodyScan provides a process to capture a person's front and side image which is then used to calculate their anthropometric measurements. BodyScan includes inspection technology of the captured images to confirm that the user adheres to a minimum set of conditions, such as checking that the user is within frame and in the expected pose position, so that a high degree of accuracy can be maintained when using the technology.
How it Works
- BodyScan is hardware accelerated to run on-device for a near real-time experience.
- Front and side images undergo proprietary computer vision and machine learning processing modules.
- Individuals receive composition, dimensioning, and health risk results, while partners can benefit from aggregated data points.

Data Outputs
User Input Data
- Height, Weight, Sex
Layer 1
Direct scan outputs
Layer 2
Derived data based on Layer 1 outputs
- Waist-Hip Ratio
- Waist-Height Ratio
- BMI
- Body Fat Percentage
Layer 3
Contextual data derived by comparing Layer 1 and 2 outputs and comparing them against public datasets or health studies.
Additional user input required to provide contextual data - Age, Ethnicity, Question Survey
