Position the stone.
Use the appropriate holder to secure the gemstone without forcing its natural orientation.
ALO Capture · Gemstone Imaging
Reveal every detail of every gemstone.
D-Imaging combines controlled lighting, precision positioning and specialised gemstone capture tools to create detailed and consistent visual assets.
Specialised ALO Capture
Designed to help reveal shape, cut, colour, clarity and optical detail.
Specialised positioning
Built for diamonds and gemstones.
Gemstones require more than a standard product-photography setup. D-Imaging provides a controlled environment designed to reveal shape, cut, colour, clarity, fluorescence and optical details.
Controlled capture
Lighting and positioning stay consistent from one stone to the next.
Specialised holders
Dedicated accessories keep the stone stable while it is being photographed.
Product workflow
Assets can move into the wider ALO product digitisation process after capture.
The gemstone capture workflow
One controlled sequence, from mounting to handoff.
The value of the setup is repeatability. Each step keeps the stone centred, visible and ready for the next stage of the customer's product workflow.
Control the environment.
Tune reflections, background and illumination to make optical details easier to reproduce.
Capture detail.
Create high-resolution photographs, close-ups and rotational content from the same setup.
Inspect the result.
Review the image for symmetry, colour behaviour, clarity and characteristic optical patterns.
Prepare for use.
Organise the resulting assets for the wider product workflow without assuming automatic sync.
Visual characteristics
What the stone needs to show clearly.
Each characteristic card focuses on the value of a controlled view, so the page reads as an editorial guide rather than a feature inventory.
Heart
Shows the symmetry and internal pattern that buyers and specialists compare at a glance.
Arrows
Helps reveal facet alignment and the optical pattern created by a well-cut stone.
Fluorescence
Makes it easier to inspect how the stone responds to light under a controlled setup.
Cut
Presents the geometry of the facets in a way that is easier to compare and discuss.
Colour
Keeps tonal differences visible without relying on uncontrolled lighting conditions.
Clarity
Helps surface and internal detail remain visible in a consistent capture frame.
Controlled reflections
Make reflections easier to evaluate, not harder to manage.
Control the environment around the stone to make reflections, edges and internal details easier to reproduce and evaluate.
The reflection cage and controlled-light environment help keep unwanted highlights in check while preserving the optical cues that matter for gemstone inspection.
Different shapes, one setup
Designed to accommodate a wide range of gemstone shapes.
Dedicated positioning accessories keep the stone stable, so the capture flow stays controlled across the supported cuts and profiles.
Dedicated holders
Precision positioning
Controlled lighting
Repeatable rotation
The setup is intended for stones that need stable, repeatable imaging rather than loose, open-table capture.
Photo and rotational content
Use the formats that show the stone best.
D-Imaging supports the content formats that matter for gemstone presentation and inspection, with repeatability as the main goal.
High-resolution photography
Keep key details visible in a format that can be reused across product channels.
Detailed close-ups
Focus on specific parts of the stone without changing the capture logic.
Rotational sequences
Show the stone from multiple angles while keeping the framing consistent.
360-degree presentation
Give customers a more complete visual read of the stone's form and symmetry.
Video or animation
Use motion where it is supported to make the stone easier to inspect and present.
A consistent visual record helps the customer reuse the same assets across the wider product workflow.
Part of the ALO Capture experience
One specialised expression of ALO Capture.
D-Imaging is built for gemstone workflows, but it still fits inside the broader ALO product-digitisation logic.
