## A Guide to how to take images so that you products can be easily modelled

The following examples show the type of images and details that should be provided to assist in the creation of 3D models from images.

Even if CAD models are provided, images like below are extremely useful to enable us to see the real product behaviour for things, like wrinkles, creases, welds, stitching etc...

#### Key Images

Below is a series of key images showing the overall form of the product, in this case, the chair:

#### Important Details

Any details that are important should be highlighted, ideally along with any notes:

#### What not to Send

Below are 2 images, on the left the images were taken into the light and the focus was on the outside, this results in a dark image, this is of course an extreme case, but images should be taken like on the right labelled good lighting:

#### Dimensions

Below is an example of dimensions we would require, the more dimensions the better and from the more angles the better. &#x20;

#### Video

This is an added bonus to get a video similar to the one below where a video is taken around the product, we can use these videos to extract images which we can use as references:

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.mimeeq.com/configurator/3d-assets/photo-and-video-references.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
