Your correspondent recalls a dozen package design projects where this device would have been super-useful. What is it? Unlike a regular product light-tent, you put objects inside the Photosimile 5000 and it takes a series of wraparound photos, by means of an automated camera positioning system and a turntable for the product. Beats the heck out of calipering every square millimeter of "the competition's" shampoo bottles and recreating it in CAD, micron by micron.
The Photosimile 5000 is manufactured by Ortery Technologies and is due to hit shelves in March.

Wow! I had never heard of this product until now. With the type of pictures you get from the machine I assume it will pay for itself. And it seems the applications are endless. Bravo!
I just saw a prototype at CES yesterday. It is impressive. But I was disappointed that it is unable to produce movie or Flash files that can be posted on the web. It is limited to 100 pictures total.
