plays an important role in human body contour extraction process. In most of the current human body
contour extraction systems, color images are converted into gray images first and then human body
contours are extracted from these gray images. In this process, a large mount of color information is lost
and the extraction results are inaccurate. Besides, strict requirements are put forward about objective
conditions when taking pictures in these systems, such as background, dress, pixel of cameras, light
and so on. In order to solve these problems, HSV color model in line with human visual habits was
adopted to extract human body contours in this paper. Human body contours were directly extracted
from color images by analyzing and changing H, S and V values. MATLAB software was used to write a
human body contour extraction program. Results of experiments show that the accuracy of extraction
is improved. The requirements about the background, dress, pixel, light and other factors are reduced
through adopting HSV color space. Automatic human body contour extraction under complex conditions
is realized in this paper, which can lay a foundation for the development of remote automatic human
body measurement systems. Research results of this paper provide a reliable basis for the development
of apparel electronic-commerce and personalized customization.},
