The unit works by having the foot of the user placed into the compartment and taking a series of pictures of the foot in order to work out the [exact measurements](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/3d-body-scanner1) that the person has. A [machine-learning algorithm](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sizekick) will work to match the measurements of the user to the styles that are available in the store that will suit their needs. The Perfitt R analyzer aims to optimize the shoe shopping experience and could drastically decrease the amount of time that consumers spend seeking out new styles.
