This video clip is just a taste of Photosynth Technology. The possibilities of the uses of this program are endless...the speaker barely scrapes the surface.
Photosynth Technology:
Photosynth is a software technology preview from Microsoft Live Labs and the University of Washington that analyzes digital photographs to build a three-dimensional model of a photographed object.Pattern recognition components compare portions of images to create points, which are then compared to convert the image into a model. Currently, users can view models built by Microsoft or the BBC, but not create their own models.
