:eek:

That is seriously awesome.

All this program needs is a black-and-white photo of someone, and it can create a full-color morphable 3D model of the subject.

To reiterate: :eek:

Imagine the implications of this technology.

Disney? Goodbye animatronics, hello talking 3D portraits.

Art museums? See the classics come to life!

Hi-tech photo albums, futuristic gravestones, new forms of art and animation... the possibilities are endless.

Of course, there are some darker uses, which I'll leave to the conspiracy theorists of NSG to voice...

LOL FAT TOM HANKS.

Anyway, I guess the darker use would be forging video evidence. Not something unknown today anyway. On the plus side we can finally get lifelike looking pr0n featuring GW Bush and the President of Iran.
