Abstract

In the rapidly evolving e-commerce industry, high-quality and consistent product images are essential for engaging consumers. Traditional manual photography often lacks consistency, while advanced robotic solutions can be overly complex and expensive for standardized cataloging. This paper details the design and validation of a 4-DOF (Degrees of Freedom) automated system for standardized product photography. The system employs a modular, fixed-platform architecture that adjusts camera height, tilt angle, object rotation, and perspective translation. An integrated control system facilitates automatic pose planning based on object size, ensuring efficient operation. We quantitatively evaluated the system's performance using metrics for perspective consistency and repeatability. Experimental results across various product types showed high stability, with minimal variance in bounding box area ratios from different viewpoints. The system exhibited exceptional repeatability in random trials, consistently achieving pair Intersection over Union (IoU) values above 0.90. This high level of geometric precision confirms the system's reliability for capturing uniform, multi-angle product images. Ultimately, this capability allows for the scalable and automated production of high-quality visuals for e-commerce.
