Abstract
The present method of measuring posture has recourse to observer's vision. The aim of this paper is measuring posture quantitatively and mechanically based on three-dimensional measurement using stereo cameras in order to apply to chiropractic. The image of the neck and the scapulary was taken from both the right side and the left side by stereo cameras. The lateralization between the neck and the scapulary was measured based on Direct Linear Transformation. Measurement not due to observer's vision was become to be possible because the most convex point was measuring points. The result of conventional method and the proposed method was compared and the effectiveness of the proposed method was confirmed.
