3DLOOK’s AI-powered computer vision technology transforms two photos into structured body data, supporting a wide range of use cases across apparel fit, body progress tracking, wellness, fitness, and weight loss. At a high level, two photos and a few supporting inputs go into 3DLOOK’s patented, proprietary system, which generates a range of outputs tailored to specific business needs.

This article explains what those outputs are and how they support different business and user needs.

How 3DLOOK technology works

3DLOOK combines two photos, guided framing, and AI-powered computer vision in a patented, proprietary system that turns a simple mobile capture into structured body data.

In one scan experience, the user:

  1. Enters a few basic inputs
    The user provides a small set of onboarding details, such as gender, age, height, and weight.
  2. Completes guided photo capture
    The platform guides the user through a simple two-photo capture flow and provides instant feedback to help improve scan quality and completion.
  3. Receives results in under 45 seconds
    3DLOOK processes the scan using its AI-powered computer vision system without manual review, delivering results quickly on any mobile device.
  4. Gets structured scan results
    The platform generates standardized body measurements, a 3D model, and progress data over time.

This approach enables a fast, scalable, mobile-first workflow that supports apparel, uniforms, wellness, fitness, and weight-loss use cases without specialized hardware or in-person scanning.

What 3DLOOK generates from two photos

3DLOOK turns a simple mobile capture into structured body data that can be used for various purposes depending on the use case. From a single scan, the platform generates:

  • 3D body model
    Visual body representation for progress comparison across scan sessions. 
  • 80+ body measurements
    Waist, hip, chest, and 80+ key measurements for monitoring, review, and trend analysis.
  • Body composition outputs
    Body fat %, lean and fat mass, BMI, BMR.
  • Body progress outputs
    Scan-to-scan trends and comparisons for longitudinal tracking.
  • Smart Scales results
    Cross-check self-reported inputs where relevant.
  • Future Body results
    Visualizing how the body will look at the desired weight.

80+ body measurements

From two photos, 3DLOOK generates 80+ precise body measurements for monitoring, review, and trend analysis. These outputs include both circumference and linear measurements across the body and support use cases that require consistency, scale, and speed.

3DLOOK AI-driven 3D body-scanning solutions offer a personalized experience for tracking key body metrics and weight-loss progress to achieve health and wellness objectives. For apparel, uniforms, and custom-fit programs, 3DLOOK delivers the most commercially important outputs, such as chest, waist, and hips, which play a central role in custom-fit workflows and uniform measurement applications.

Body composition outputs

3DLOOK also generates body composition outputs that support wellness, fitness, and weight-loss workflows. These outputs include:

  • BMI
  • BMR
  • Body fat %
  • Fat body mass
  • Lean body mass

These outputs give users and organizations a more complete picture than a single weight number alone. They support progress tracking, coaching programs, and body insight experiences where change over time matters.

For FitXpress and related health, wellness, fitness, and weight-loss use cases, these outputs make the product more actionable. Instead of relying solely on basic self-reporting, organizations can use structured body data to support engagement, progress measurement, and more personalized experiences.

Body progress outputs

3DLOOK’s outputs become even more powerful over time. Body progress tracking helps users and organizations monitor how measurements and body composition outputs change across repeated scans, which makes the technology especially useful for:

  • Wellness and fitness programs
  • Weight-loss journeys
  • Health coaching
  • Remote assessments
  • Consumer body insight tools

Because the same guided mobile workflow can be repeated over time, progress becomes easier to track, communicate, and act on in real-world programs.

Can the SDK camera flow be branded?

The SDK camera flow is intentionally standardized to support a consistent capture experience and reliable scan performance. Clients can brand the surrounding product experience, while the capture layer remains streamlined and guided.

Can the tutorial flow be customized?

The SDK tutorial itself is not customizable, but it can be launched with the tutorial disabled. In that case, you can build and present your own instructional flow before entering the SDK capture experience.

What error/validation messages are shown to users, and can they be customized?

In the RTPV (real-time pose validation) flow, user guidance happens during capture through real-time instructions. Separate backend validation messages are not shown to the user in that mode, since RTPV serves as the validation layer itself. When RTPV is enabled, backend validation is disabled. As a result, there is no separate set of rejection/error messages in the capture flow to override. We strongly recommend that you do not disable RTPV.

Does the SDK handle everything end-to-end, or does the business need to manage backend API calls?

The SDK handles photo capture only. After capture, your backend is responsible for sending images to the API and handling the returned outputs.
