主权项

1. A non-transitory computer-readable medium embodying a program executable in a computing device, the program comprising:
code that initiates capture of a plurality of images of an item in an image capture apparatus, the image capture apparatus comprising a semi-spherical structure having a plurality of image capture devices aimed at a target position that is centrally located within the semi-spherical structure; code that retrieves the plurality of images from the plurality of the image capture devices of the image capture apparatus; code that associates the plurality of images with an item identifier, wherein the item identifier uniquely identifies the item in a product catalog associated with an online merchant; code that associates each of the plurality of images with an image identifier, the image identifier identifying a respective view associated with a respective one of the plurality of images; code that retrieves a page template associated with a content page, the page template specifying a location within the content page for at least a subset of the plurality of images; and code that generates the content page from the page template, the content page including a plurality of references to the at least a subset of the plurality of images, the plurality of references facilitating retrieval of the at least a subset of images by a client.
