Abstract:
An example modular imaging system may include at least a modular imaging enclosure and a power supply. The modular imaging enclosure may include multiple panels coupled together to define an interior space of the modular imaging enclosure where an object may be placed in order to obtain image data relating to the object. Individual ones of the panels may include imaging panels having one or more light emitting elements, an array of cameras, and a panel computer. The power supply can supply power to these electronic components so they can operate to capture images of an object in appropriate lighting. The modular nature of the imaging system allows for easy packaging and shipment, as well as easy setup and teardown to use the imaging system, making it an easily transportable device that can be easily transported to the location of an object(s) to be imaged.
