Abstract:
A system for acquiring multi-angle images of a product includes a workstation having a working surface for placing a product, a camera supporting member having a vertical axis, and an image capturing device movably attached to the camera supporting member so that it may move along the vertical axis of the camera supporting member. The system captures and analyzes a digital image of a product to detect the vertical center of the product, and adjusts the position of the image capturing device along the vertical axis so that the vertical center of the product is proximate to the vertical center of the image. The system may also have a turntable and additionally rotate the turntable at multiple capturing angles and capture one or more additional digital images of the product at various capturing angles and store the one or more additional images in a product database.

Claim (Index 8):
A system for acquiring multi-angle images of a product, comprising:\n a computing device; a workstation comprising a working surface, a turntable rotatably mounted underneath the working surface, a motor of the turntable, at least one background wall, and a camera supporting member having a vertical axis, wherein the camera supporting member is configured to movably attach an image capturing device so that the image capturing device may be moved along the vertical axis of the camera supporting member; and a non-transitory, computer readable medium containing program instructions that are configured to cause the computing device to:\n cause the image capturing device to capture a first digital image of the product, \n analyze the captured first digital image and detect a vertical center of the product, \n determine if the vertical center of the product is proximate to a vertical center of the first digital image, \n only upon determining that the vertical center of the product is not proximate to the vertical center of the first digital image, cause the image capturing device to move along the vertical axis to a location based on the distance between the vertical center of the product and the vertical center of the first image, \n cause the image capturing device to capture one or more additional digital images of the product after the image capturing device has moved to the location on the vertical axis by the computing device causing the motor of the turntable to rotate the turntable to each of a plurality of capturing angles and capturing one of the additional images at each of the plurality of capturing angles, and \n store the one or more additional images in a product database.
