MUMBAI, India, May 1 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641051232 A) filed by Indian Institute Of Technology, Hyderabad, Telangana, on April 22, for 'a method and a system for analyzing body fat composition and body fat distribution in a subject.'
Inventor(s) include Aditya Koppula; Kousik Sarathy Sridharan; and Mohan Raghavan.
The application for the patent was published on May 1, under issue no. 18/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present subject matter discloses a method for analyzing body fat composition and body fat distribution in a subject. The method includes capturing one or more of a plurality of multi-view RGB images, and a plurality of depth maps associated with the subject. The method includes generating a raw point cloud of a 3-dimensional mesh representing an external body surface and metadata of the subject based on the one or more of the plurality of multi-view RGB images, and the plurality of depth maps. The method includes identifying a closest matching body template from a plurality of body templates stored in a memory (106), based on the metadata, and identifying a plurality of joint points on the raw pint cloud of the 3D mesh. The method includes aligning the plurality of joint points by warping the raw point cloud of the 3D mesh with the closest matching body template to generate an aligned 3D mesh associated with the subject, and performing a field subtraction on the 3D mesh and the aligned 3D mesh to compute a differential mesh with a shell comprising a fat volume indicating the body fat composition and the body fat distribution."
