Abstract

This paper describes a system which enables a fast 3-dimensional measuring of a human head using a slit-ray projection method . One feature of our system is that almost all calculations are executed using a look-up table, so that, forty thousands of sample point scan be processed in a few seconds. The feasibility of our system for practical applications is demonstrated measuring a human head.
