Microsoft updated Photosynth technology Preview

Microsoft Released Photosynth Technology Preview: This is a technology developed by Live Labs.

The "Photosynth" project provides a set of Automatic Generation Based on photos.3D Model Software. The software can automatically analyze a group of photos of an object or scene at any angle, time, local, or overall,Intelligently identifies the spatial correspondence between each photo,
To generate a three-dimensional model that can be rotated and viewed freely. In the Demo Video, Live Labs researcher blasise
Arcas uses dozens of digital photos taken by different people on the Internet to generate a three-dimensional panoramic model of St. Peter's Cathedral in the Vatican and St. Peter's Square. You can roam in a 3D model and stop to watch the model at any time.
Details of the image, the effect is amazing. Using this software and hundreds of millions of digital images on the Internet, we can no doubt be able to sit in front of the computer and feel more immersive those scenic spots that cannot be reached.

Photosynth will undoubtedlyIng AndGIS SubjectPhotography and Measurement 3D modeling has a long influence. If a realistic 3D model can be created based on a general photo, the cost of building the 3D model will be greatly reduced. In addition, due to the existence of photos, you can also get the actual situation, which is not an advantage of the general modeling method.

about Windows Live Labs :
at the beginning of this year, to "better cooperate. NET strategy ",
Microsoft reorganized its Research Institute's organizational structure. It was inferred from the open materials that the reorganization changed the old model of the temporary project team as the project unit, and set up a number of more specific objectives and relatively fixed personnel labs.
Windows Live Labs (WLL) and search labs are both created by Yahoo! Gary of Research
Dr. flake led professional researchers, including multimedia, machine self-learning, distributed computing, and data mining, ray Ozzie, Craig Mundie, and David
vaskevitch, Chief Technology Officers of the three major Microsoft companies, are both wll consultants. Unlike windows
live product development , wll focuses on key Internet-based applications such as rapid modeling and new technology applications, and explores how to use new technologies to improve the Windows Live service.
