Human body measurements have been around since the middle ages in many forms. Clothes require human body measurements to be made; human also view the measurements as records of growth. However, the process of such measurement is tedious. This project aims to solve this tedious problem and provide a solution that can improve efficiency tremendously. Human body measurements from photographs is such a solution to improve the efficiency such that it becomes possible measure hundreds of people a day. With no more than one person operating this application, the application is a computer program made using C++ together with OpenCV. A studio set up for taking of the photograph and certain level of controlled environment for the experiment of the solution will be required. After the photograph is taken, it will be graphically processed by C++ and OpenCV functions and Human body measurements will be made.
