New Spinme Software Coming soon!!!




Exciting news!
New Spinme studio professional is expected to be released in the next fortnight.

Programmer Paul Beddis has been working on the software and is confident the software realises all the needs of a busy shooting schedule.

Major improvements integrate FotoRobot hardware controls into the software enabling the capturing of spins within the Spinme Studio software. This would improve work flow and eliminate 3rd part controller software. The graphical interface for controlling the hardware has also been updated (See images), adding more flexibility and convenient.

There are new 360 viewers to export images to, including an Ipad compatible viewer.

The software is currently in the stage of beta testing with spinme clients.

Spinme's ebay debut


A 360 created utilising Spinme/photorobot technology has been used on ebay in the selling of an item. A series of 4 spins exported directly from Spinme studio were embedded on the item's page (A MX-1 mixer & controller) in order to advertise the item's various qualities including shape, texture, features in animation format. This was used at no extra cost to the seller which begs the question: Why pay for additional images on ebay when you use 360?





Okay, okay the
benefits of 360 imagery aren't available tools for your average ebayer to advertise with, but its presence on ebay produces interesting results. Tell us what you think. You can view the item page here.

360: Halfords Shoot!







Retail giants Halfords were in the Spinme studio last week. On this occassion they brought no less than 16 bikes to shoot. The larger turn table was used to rotate the bikes while the auxillery unit above (synchronised with the table) helped support the bikes with transparent wire. The results were very exciting and Halfords went away from the experience satisfied customers.
