A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Anthropometry is a way of measuring the human body, especially the size relationships between different parts.

Before fingerprinting was used, anthropometry was used to identify criminals and deceased persons. This involved taking precise measurements of the body and comparing them to other people's measurements. For example, if two suspects had similar measurements, they could be compared to see if they were the same person.

Example: Anthropometry is still used today in fields like ergonomics and clothing design. For example, when designing a car, anthropometric data is used to ensure that the seats and controls are positioned in a way that is comfortable for the majority of people.

Tbh I downplayed myself and more mentioned as a team we did x y and z and all that cuz I didn’t wanna come off as arrogant and be like “all me” so them backing it up or expanding on how I specifically helped even more than the “here were my notable contributions to this team effort” should strengthen I think
