AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Current shoe measurement methods are either inaccurate due to manual scale reading or expensive and time-consuming multi-dimensional scanning, failing to ensure a perfect shoe fit due to variability in foot shape and size.

Method used

A mechanical measuring device with optical markings and a camera-based system that calculates foot dimensions digitally, using a processor to determine geometric distances and output results directly, allowing for precise and efficient multi-dimensional foot measurement without manual data entry, and optionally integrating with a library of shoe data for virtual try-on recommendations.

Benefits of technology

Provides accurate, quick, and cost-effective multi-dimensional foot measurement, ensuring a better fit by eliminating manual errors and offering personalized shoe recommendations, while being accessible and user-friendly.

Abstract

The invention relates to a measuring assembly (10) for multidimensionally measuring feet. The measuring assembly (10) comprises a measuring device (12) having at least two mechanical slides (26) and a plurality of optical markings (34, 36), of which at least one marking (34) is on one of the mechanical slides (26) and one marking (36), which serves as a reference, is apart from of the mechanical slide (26). The mechanical slides (26) can be pushed to different contact points of a foot (32) such that the geometric distance between the marking (36) serving as a reference and the at least one marking (34) which is on one of the mechanical slides (26) changes. The measuring assembly (10) furthermore comprises a terminal device (14) having a camera (38) for capturing the optical markings (34, 36), and a processor (16) which is configured to calculate the resulting foot measurements based on the captured positions of the optical marking (34, 36). The invention also relates to a method for multidimensionally measuring feet.
