Blaise Aguera y Arcas: Photosynth demo
Loading...
Uploaded by jayeshsraut on Jun 4, 2007
Using photos of oft-snapped subjects (like Notre Dame) scraped from around the Web, Photosynth creates breathtaking multidimensional spaces with zoom and navigation features that outstrip all expectation. Its architect, Blaise Aguera y Arcas, shows it off in this standing-ovation demo. Curious about that speck in corner? Dive into a freefall and watch as the speck becomes a gargoyle. With an unpleasant grimace. And an ant-sized chip in its lower left molar. "Perhaps the most amazing demo I've seen this year," wrote Ethan Zuckerman, after TED2007. Indeed, Photosynth might utterly transform the way we manipulate and experience digital images.

@DavidRGilson Nawww, you'd only have to worry about that if Apple or Google owned it.

This is awe inspiring technology. Although I am sad because it is in the hands of Microsoft, which means it will never reach its ultimate potential because Microsoft does things for the good of its share holders, not for the good of society. On the other hand, if the opened up the technology so there's no lawyers and no fees involved, then it would be stellar!

I hate to admit it, but in the past apple were always the most impressive. But MS are really impressing me these days.
MS Surface is also astonishing!
PS, Anyone who knows anything about computers know that apple's are complete rubbish. Even the Iphone is obsolete, check out some of the SE phones in Japan that are far superior to the Iphone.
