Abstract
An apparatus and method for measuring a volume of a person's body. The apparatus comprises a body suit having an inner layer and an outer layer which forms a body portion and a head portion. The body suit further has a cavity defined within the inner layer, the cavity having an amount of known initial volume. The apparatus further comprises a fluid assembly which is removeably connected to the body suit. The fluid assembly is configured to discharge fluid into the cavity and around the body when the body is disposed within the cavity. The fluid assembly discharges the fluid to fill the cavity from a first position to a second position, the second position having an amount of a final volume such that a difference between the known initial volume amount and the final volume amount of the second position equals the volume of the body.
