Sometimes you want to show every angle of your product. Other times you want it to stand out beyond everyone else in the market. Multi-row 360's are a great way to showcase your products. Let the user play with the product online. They can see it through every twist and turn. The process is not easy, but the end result can make the most mundane product more interesting.

Bringing action to a still life

Navy Federal has added a great interface to their different offerings. With the help of the staff at Fitgerald + CO, They have a still life of their offerings that evyone can take for a spin. This is a change for the guys at PhotoSpherix.

Do you have a product group or family that you want to show in a more interesting way, call PhotoSpherix and we will help you out.

Take a look at what Navy Federal has done.

Hotspots are all the buzz

Eva-Dry came to photospherix with a problem. Their customers loved their products, but a new customer just didn't get it. They wanted a way to demonstrate their product online. They wanted the user to hold the product in their hands and examine it. They also needed to tell the story of how the product works. Hotspots for their 360 degree product rotations were the answer. With two or three clicks, the user knows how the product works and how to assemble the product when they receive it. This has greatly reduced Eva-Drys phone and email questions about the product as well as virtually removed product returns from lack of information.

Here is a link to 360 product view hotspots in action.

Growing with every product

This project for Sanyo BioMedical is a great example of taking the technology of 3d product photography and including it into a full flash site for a new or existing product. The group at Sanyo wanted to find a way get more heat for the release of their new incubator. They come to PhotoSpherix for help getting more motion in their product display.

We Keep Getting Bigger

The Work and the rigs are growing. This summer, PhotoSpherix added an 8ft platform to the list of rotation devices available in the studio. This platform holds up to 2000lbs with a rotation resolution of 48 stops per rotation. This makes it possible to get that great shot of you larger object. TV's, refridgerators, lawn tractors even pop up tents can be shot using this new equipment.

Here is a link to an example of an oversized 360 product view.

THE SPIN is IN

More and more PhotoSpherix is getting requests for alternate uses of our rotational imaging. RCA request that we photograph there new line of LCD and Plasma displays. The images were used as an art element on their site. Additionally they were used in the online catalog of products.

Museum-quality coding

You hear the term "museum-quality" as a reference to the top of the top, the cream of the crop. So it's a very nice complement when a museum says that about PhotoSpherix. Matt got called in at the 11th hour to do some serious coding to keep a monster panorama up and running for the Brooklyn Museum. Not sure if he reinvented the wheel, but as far as coding for panoramas goes, it's fine art in its own right. Have a look at the finished work, here:

UPDATE: The head honcho over at the Brooklyn Museum had some nice things to say about Matt and PhotoSpherix (and Jook, over at 360VR.com) on their blog.

From panels to pillows (and then some)

What started out as wall panels has evolved into pillows and more. We've mentioned the good folks at inhabit before – see the previous news note below. This time around we were asked to shoot their entire product line, including pillows, bed linens, wall pieces, and more. For the inhabit folks, it's a way to better convey their artistic and functional products. For us, it's an excuse to test a pillow during a well-earned nap! Here's to a great partnership with InhabitLiving.com, and a toast to more things to come. And here's a link so you can buy some kick-ass pillows and more:

The ol' "polar bear in a snowstorm" trick

The good folks at inhabit have some amazing interior items ... many of them are nearly white and very tough to photograph normally.

That's where we come in. Their wall panels are revolutionary, and the only way to get a sense of their style and texture is to spin 'em around, PhotoSpherix-style. Go have a look at InhabitLiving.com and let us know what you think in the Forums.

Cover Story: The Indy Star!

On Monday, Oct. 30, we made the cover of the Business section — will wonders never cease!

Reporter Dana Knight and photographer Alan Petersime stopped by the office to have a chat and look around the place.

The article captures the essence of what we're all about — hardcore technology, stunning photography, and a beautiful union of the two. Dana did her homework: there were a few quotes from current clients who had really great things to say: thank you! Alan did his part, too, although we'd prefer to be on the other side of the camera!

Benches that fold!

One of our international clients, FoldingBench.com, has found a great way to showcase their products' portability.

With our technology, we're able to show the full process — from open to close, and back — of their folding benches.

With multiple color and pattern options, their selection is limited only by their customers' needs. And with PhotoSpherix, they're able to better convey their product variety and functionality, all the while bringing interactivity to their site. Visit them online at www.foldingbench.com.

Sound can change everything!

We have the ability to show your product from every angle, giving you a photo representation of your object in 3-d. This will catch your customers eye. With PhotoSpherix's Adobe Flash based Object VR viewer, you can add sound as well.

We have included a link to an example with sight and sound. Click here to listen to Molly as she plays in her child seat.

 

A walk down Main Street.

We took a walk down Main Street in Beech Grove. Here is the current images available from this home town in Indiana. This virtual tour helps you walk through the heart of the town within the city. Just 5 miles from Downtown Indianapolis, you can have the feeling of a "Hometown" from Indiana with all of the positives of a larger city.

Over the next few months we will be imaging all of Beech Grove. The goal is to have a full visual history before the changes to our town start. The Mayor has many changes lined up that will greatly change the Main Street Feel for the better.
