arXiv:2605.23064v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Body shape and circumferences are clinically informative biomarkers for risk stratification, including measures such as waist to hip ratio, limb and trunk girths, yet conventional tools such as manual tape measures and optical scanners often require undressing and sustained poses. These demands slow workflows, compromise dignity, and exclude many older adults and people with limited mobility. To make measurement fast and contactless, we leverage millimeter-wave (mmWave) radar, which preserves privacy and operates through typical clothing, enabl
Advances in millimeter-wave radar technology and AI are converging to enable contactless and private body measurement solutions, moving beyond traditional methods.
This technology offers a dignified and efficient alternative for health monitoring and risk stratification, particularly for vulnerable populations, while streamlining clinical workflows.
Body measurement can now be conducted non-invasively through clothing, preserving privacy and enabling broader application in various settings.
- · Healthcare providers
- · Elderly and limited mobility populations
- · AI/Radar technology developers
- · Clinical research
- · Manual tape measure manufacturers
- · Optical body scanner companies (some segments)
Contactless anthropometric body measurement becomes widely accessible and integrated into routine health assessments.
Improved early detection and monitoring of health risks based on body composition, leading to better preventative care outcomes.
The development of personalized health interventions and AI-driven predictive health models based on continuous, non-invasive body data.
