The advancement in technology led to development of many anthropometric tools. Some of them are as follows: | |||
'''1. Anthropometer:''' Anthropometer measures vertical dimensions of the human body. The instrument consists of three aluminium square profiles and a double-sided measuring system with a reading scale. The long axis of the instrument is mounted with a telescopic round sleeve with a double-sided groove that features a dimension reading index. The sleeve is mounted with a sliding needle, whose tip is applied to the appropriate anthropometric point. | '''1. Anthropometer:''' Anthropometer measures vertical dimensions of the human body.
