Physicist turned tech entrepreneur Raj Sareen has created the Styku 3D Body Scanner, which aims to help clients achieve their weight loss goals by providing a powerful visual. Unlike traditional methods of measuring body composition, Styku is quick, easy and non-invasive. Within 30 seconds, the 3D scanner takes a range of measurements, and then creates a 3D image of the person.
“There’s nothing more motivating than seeing the changes in your body reflected back as a real image,” Sareen says. “Styku is able to lay one scan on top of another to give a very accurate before and after image.”
Styku is partnered with Microsoft, the makers of the Kinect – the world’s most precise 3D camera. This ensures that measurements are accurate to within 2-3mm.
The system allows clients to set workout activity and calorie targets in order to reach their ideal body fat percentage. Improvements and shape analysis can be tracked over time; a person’s statistics can be compared to other people of their age and gender; and health risks can be identified.
Sareen believes Styku can help clubs with member acquisitions, retention and sales revenues. “Clubs can use Styku to engage and motivate,” he says. “Members are happy to invest in their transformation and see measured results.”
