Could you integrate with Kinect to do automatic body measurement?

ANSWERED

I was wondering if anyone had considered doing this?  I noticed there are all sorts of body measurements that fitbit can track, but its a pain in the neck to get out a tape measure and take them.    With the kinnect API it seems like this should be somewhat easy to do.   Instruct the person to do a few movements, and stretches, and maybe turn around a few times, then do some averaging.   You could even apply measurements to a rendered reconstruction to see trends over time all at once.

 

Absolute accuracy is probably not as important as being able to track trends over time.

 

This certainly isn't a trivial problem, but it sounds tractible.
