Technology

Built for trust and repeatability

Our stack balances on-device guidance with cloud reconstruction—always with uncertainty bands, never false precision.

ai engine

AI Engine

Ensemble models estimate body landmarks and volumetric shape from multi-view imagery. Outputs include uncertainty bands—not single false-precision numbers.

computer vision

Computer Vision

Pose estimation and silhouette extraction stabilize framing so weekly scans remain comparable.

body mapping

Body Mapping

A parametric mesh is fit to observed contours, then refined for circumference extraction along anatomical planes.

privacy

Privacy & Security

TLS in transit, encryption at rest, role-based access for family and trainer shares. We do not sell personal scan data.

accuracy

Accuracy methodology

In controlled tests, key circumferences typically fall within roughly ±1–2 cm of tape measure baselines for average adult builds. Results vary with clothing, lighting, and pose. Forma is not a medical diagnostic device.

ml

Machine Learning

Models are validated on diverse body shapes. We continuously evaluate bias and publish methodology notes for enterprise customers.

cloud

Cloud processing

Heavy reconstruction jobs run in regional cloud workers for speed; you can request deletion of cloud copies anytime.

edge

Edge processing

Pose guidance and preview run on-device so you get real-time feedback before upload.

encryption

Data encryption

AES-256 at rest for stored artifacts; modern TLS for APIs. Access logs available for business accounts.
