Photosimile is an all-in-one solution. The combination of lighting control, a digital camera and control software eliminates many of the variables associated with producing professional-quality pictures, making it simple to use while producing excellent photography results.

Photosimile 5000 simplifies and automates the process of creating professional quality photographs for Web, print and business communication. The software was specifically designed to make photography easy and to speed up image capture and image processing workflows.

This unique solution is capable synchronizing camera position, turntable position and picture taking to automatically generate hemispherical flash files. Each file consists of up to 100 individual pictures taken from 100 different angles and offers the viewer a click-and-drag presentation of the item from almost every angle on the top half of a sphere.
In addition to Hemispherical Flash files, images composed with Ortery Real3D utilizes Microsoft's Silverlight technology to create Hemispherical and full Spherical animations that feature deep zoom capabilities.

Ortery Real3D gives you the ability to take your eCommerce or business communications to the next level by providing an imaging platform that makes it easy to compose and disseminate product animations that allow the user to see click-and-drag the object to see it from every angle as well as deep zoom in to see the details.
Communicating this extra information in digital images will lead to higher conversion rates for eCommerce and cost savings for companies communicating over long distances and language barriers. There's no need to send a physical sample anymore when a picture quality 3D digital file with deep zoom capabilities transmits for free and reaches its destination almost instantaneously.
Surround lighting, the right type light, the right light intensity and special light diffusion provide a controlled and ideal environment for shooting almost anything that fits inside the studio. You can expect to spend much less time (if any) editing images taken with Photosimile 5000.

Know what the picture is going to look like before you take it. Previewing puts the camera in video mode so you can properly compose the picture while viewing it in real-time on your monitor screen. While previewing you can also properly set crop markers so that when the image is taken, it’s automatically cropped to the right size.
Previewing is great for still shots but its absolutely necessary for 360, hemispherical and spherical animations. Its very important to see the object spinning on the turntable to ensure proper object positioning and cropping.

This software driven system saves mouse clicks and time with each picture taken. After pressing Snap to take the picture, the image automatically downloads and appears on your monitor screen within seconds.

Anyone can walk up to a Photosimile studio, place an item inside and take a professional picture. Once the picture is obtained, the image processing workflows built into the software can be used to efficiently transform the image into exactly what’s needed for almost any application.
