Cheap 3D Computer Vision?

Posted by michael on from the no-glasses-required dept.

InspectorPraline writes "According to this article at the New York Times [free reg req'd], a tech firm known as Tyzx is developing optics technology that will have three-dimensional capability -- using two cameras attached by a high-bandwidth connection to a custom processing card inside a PC. The article makes one believe that the system would have a top speed of as much as 132 stereo frames per second, which could be very useful in security systems. Of course, the real question is who's behind the cameras, but we can all drool over the other possibilities, right?"

    Looks like the mexicans lost to the vastly superior United States once again. Do those filthy wetbacks suck at everything they do? Apparently so. Add worldcup soccer onto the list.

    I bet that nerdy guy with all the conspiracy theories on king of the hill is like a lot of slashdot readers.

    When i picture a slashdot reader i see some guy like that.

    Or some dejected high school dork with no life who thinks he's an eleet dude becuase he can do ./configure;make;make install all day long on his crapware box.

    Or some stupid code monkey who read a couple unix programming books and thinks he's smarter than someone with a masters in cs becuase he can do some basic unix coding.

    Or...

    Well slashdot is just full of morons, the ones with paranoid fantasies are only one flavour of slashdot moron. There are many distributions of moron around these parts...
