The earliest scientifically planned survey using 3-D scanners was the Civilian
American and European Surface Anthropometry Resource (CAESAR) project con-
ducted in 1998–2000. One of the two scanners used in the study was the Cyberware
WB4 scanner, which is composed of 16 cameras housed in a booth measuring approx-
imately 3mx3mx3m, weighing about 450kg, and costing US$350,000 (Fig. 1.1A)
