Photosynth Team Does It Again

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the see-what-i-see dept.

STFS found an update to the Photosynth stories that we already ran. You might remember the amazing photo tourism demos. Well, this new version kicks things up several notches with paths and color correction to more smoothly transition between photos taken in different lighting conditions. As before, this stuff is worth your time. Check it out.

  1. Microsoft stealing from Linux again... by Tryfen · · Score: 0, Troll

    Photosynth started out as Photo Tourism on Linux. Guess that puts to rest the "fact" that Microsoft innovates and OSS steals.

      Well, OSS does "steal" (whatever that means) and Microsoft does innovate, so other than coming across as rather insecure in your distortion field, I fail to see your point.

      Maybe next time you spot a cool technology early you'll want to email Mark Shuttleworth or IBM and ask them to fund the research. That way you won't have to do this again.

    Imagine showing your kids the Parthenon, the Sphinx, the Great Pyramid, The Statue of Liberty, and the Kremlin.

    Huh? Why not get out there, meet people from those countries, eat the food they eat, get drunk with them, and actually experience the world?
