Originally posted by ychousa Oh, I see. You meant it was designed in CAD by some kind of 3D like rendering, right? I thought you meant CAD software has come up with a new function to process actual photo to render this kind of final product. I now see what you meant.
They do this for all sorts of products these days. Car ads, for example, are often digitally made with some photos for background and landscape and a 3D model of the car added onto it. This way they can control light perfectly, make sure the car is absolutely perfect, no dust, scratches, nothing. People don't inspect ads very closely, so they don't notice small digital imperfections. If you really look at it you can notice that it is "more perfect than reality"
