Nope. Have not done any searching.

But, let's say that the tech is only putting a thing on a platform and letting various lights and cameras do the scanning while that thing was rotating. Why not suspend it from a few strings? Why not stand it up on the end? It does not NEED to be resting on the "wheels" to be scanned, does it?

You're right, though. Just getting the outer surface and adding a thickness to it is usually enough for horseshoes and atom bombs.
