Photoshop CS3, Meet Strata Foto 3D 1.5
The links between Photoshop CS3 and Strata's acclaimed 3D suite grow even stronger with the release of Strata Foto 3D 1.5. Like the other members of the suite, Strata 3D CX and Strata Live 3D, the connection goes both ways.
Strata Foto 3D includes a handy script to combine all your product shots in one Photoshop document for masking. Once you've masked the images, the Foto 3D plug-in can grab all your images in one shot, create the 3D model and pass it back to Photoshop CS3 Extended. With the full version of Foto 3D, rather than the 3D[in] version, you have access to larger textures, more detailed models, and more precise lens calibration.
All the features of Foto 3D[in] that you've seen so far are now completely within Strata Foto 3D 1.5.
Take full advantage of an integrated 3D/2D workflow
Strata Foto 3D 1.5 integrates with Photoshop CS3 in a number of key ways.

Create 3D Models From Images In Photoshop CS3 Extended
Use the included script to combine your product shots into one document for easy masking. Use the Foto 3D plugin to send all the images to Foto 3D for the creation of the model and texture, then return the model to Photoshop or save it for use in Strata 3D CX 5.5 or other 3D applications.
Take the guess-work out of creating photo-realistic 3D models.
