Seeing Around Corners With Dual Photography

An anonymous reader writes "This project (which is part of this year's SIGGRAPH) has absolutely blown my mind. Basically they photograph an object with the photosensor at one point, and the light projector at another, and use the Helmholtz reciprocity algorithm to virtually switch the locations of the camera and projector, showing exactly what the light source "sees"! If that doesn't make sense to you, check out the research page and make sure to watch the 60MB video at the bottom. The playing card trick will leave you speechless!"

Blame The Slashdot Editors by dohboy · 2005-05-10 01:31 · Score: 5, Insightful

Don't blame their webserver/fileserver for not being able to see the movie they raved about.

It is the laziness and irresponsibility of the slashdot editors to not provide a bittorrent link.
I am disgusted that slashdot raves about a site/file/mpeg then DDOSs
it so that nobody sees it. This is particularly bad when a hobbyist site is crushed.

Mod me into oblivion, I don't care.
