ProFORMA: Probabilistic Feature-based On-line Rapid Model Acquisition

I came across this amazing research project via @dogacan today. The technology described is a combination of video tracking and image-based reconstruction. Watch the video below, it’s awesome!

The final model has some minor artifacts (especially in concave sections) but very nice looking otherwise. I wonder how well it handles complex geometries and deep cavities.

They say, in the project page, there will be a Linux-based demo released in a few months. You can leave your e-mail there if you want to get notified.

It’s a really strange feeling, what you read in sci-fi stories coming true. First they made it possible to generate believable images purely out of bits and pixels. And now you can create a complete animation just with a movie script.

I have stumbled upon STATE via sjjh today. Check out the demo.

I wonder what will be possible next? Hopefully not immortality. There are too many cool things to discover before.
