I have been working on developing a method to photographically determine frontal area of cyclists.
If you get a chance, take a look at it here (yes, its free). ;-)

My question to this group (hopefully there are some optics experts out there that can point me in
the right direction): Is it possible to compare the results from different setups (camera height,
separation distance, focal length of camera, etc..) by using some "correction" formulas?
My hunch is that it should be possible, but I haven't really had the motivation to work on this
project lately, since it suits my "comparative" needs just fine (same setup each time with the
same camera).
Basically, I was just curious and figured you all might be able to help out - plus it gives us
something a bit out of the ordinary to noodle around.
