Imaging platform, in particular for imaging people

An imaging platform assembly, comprising:

• a platform having a transparent portion;
• a support frame having a lower edge region and an upper edge region vertically spaced from said lower edge region, said support frame supporting said platform proximate said upper edge region such that a space is provided between said platform and said lower edge region of said support frame;
• a rotatable camera support coupled to said support frame adjacent to said platform;
• a first camera arm which extends from said camera support and has a free end;
• and
• a camera arranged at said free end of said first camera arm and having a field of view oriented toward said platform,
• wherein said camera support is rotatable to cause said free end of said camera support to move around said platform such that said camera at said free end of said camera support moves in a path between a position above said platform and a position below said transparent region of said platform and enables imaging of a subject on said platform from above and below said platform,
• wherein said support frame comprises:
• a base at said lower edge region;
• and
• a first support pillar extending upward from said base to a height above said platform, said camera support being rotatably mounted to said first support pillar, and
• wherein the assembly further comprises:
• a separator mounted to said first support pillar in a position between said camera support and said first support pillar to maintain spacing between said camera support and said first support pillar.

• a platform support ring at said upper edge region for supporting said platform;
• at least one support member that supports said platform support ring on said base, said at least one support member being configured to allow said first camera arm to pass under said platform without impacting any of said at least one support member;
• and
• a second support pillar mounted to and extending upward from said platform support ring opposite said first support pillar,
• said camera support being supported by and positioned between said first and second support pillars.
