As a media guy and computer scientist, this video demo of Blaise Aguera y Arcas showing off Seadragon and Photosynth had me drooling for more. If you’re at all interested in photography or the presentation of imagery, you absolutely must see this demo.
I wonder when technology like this will make it into real-world products? And how much privacy is going to be violated when Flickr images can be identified and placed geographically via image matching instead of explicit metadata? There are going to be a lot more nose-picking shots out there. :) [also, check out the live preview]
microsoft is getting some real interesting stuff in position. Have you have seen the surface (http://www.microsoft.com/surface/) presentation?
WOW amazing!!!
