Photosynth
August 14, 2006
Tim Gasperak pointed me to Photosynth, a provocative research prototype out of Microsoft Live Labs.
The interface strikes me as flickr-meets-David Hockney-meets-Jaron Lanier.
While the research site is short on any real technical details, it does offer a general description of how they develop a "point cloud" imprint for each image that can then be correlated with other images in a collection.
