Demo of the Year: Photosynth

Yesterday, Gary Flake, head of Microsoft’s Live Labs, gave me a tour of Photosynth. It is simply the demo of the year. Certainly the coolest thing showed off this week at the Web 2.0 Summit.

Gary gives a great demo.

Behind me there were a couple of Web 2.0 summit attendees and they were whispering to each other “f***ing amazing.” Even better than you can load this on your own computer, get it on the Photosynth site.

I’m going to take the rest of the day off. In fact, I might take all of next week off from my text blog to dedicate time to answering email and to getting caught up on ScobleShow editing tasks.

  13. @Bob Jones-did you read the blog where they say they are working to make it run on other browsers? This will make home slideshows super cool. I agree that it is going to be fun to play with this. Top demo of the year-exactly.

  16. Steve: I thought about noting that it doesn’t have a whole lot of utility. But, screw it, it’s a fantastically cool technology and we should celebrate it on just that point alone. Not everything has to be utilitarian to be cool.

    Hell, a great piece of art isn’t useful.

  19. I read some thoughts on digg about how this can be useful. One of which is that a project is set up to make a 3d mosaic of a particular place, for example, Disney World, where millions of people visit each year and 100s of millions of photos are taken. People are invited to sumbit their pictures to the project’s site, and a 3D mosaic of Disney World is created from the millions of photos.

  22. Remember this? http://preview.local.live.com/

    Now imagine what you’ll have after Microsoft runs all that data (pictures of most streets of Seattle) through Photosynth. All of a sudden, you have a complete 3D model of Seattle. Or at least a 3D model of the street level of Seattle. Throw in some “Bird’s Eye View” data from local.live.com, merge in the skyscraper building textures from the 3D Virtual Earth where they are needed, and you have some VERY cool possibilities.

    Personally, I’ll admit that I’ve already taken about 60 pictures of my study abroad dorm room so that I can look back on it in a few years.

    To relatives: “This is what my dorm room looked like in Mexico.” followed by lots of oohs and ahhhs as I zoom in and pan around

    Plus it’ll just be cool to look at when I have the ability to make my own datasets.

    Yes, my computer meets and exceeds all requirements and I did sign in as administrator.

    Aside from the fact that it didn’t work – NOTHING Microsoft does like this is going to be worth squat to me if it means I have to log out, log on as administrator, find my way back, install, then log back out and back in as a limited user. I’ll do that for an application I know I want but only very rarely for something like this (Faigin got me curious).

    You can actually see the technology at work when viewing the Gary Faigin Art Studio. Try zooming into the artwork on display using your scroll wheel.

    Would love to see this implemented in a virtual library that contains all the rare and famous books that are currently owned by different collectors & organizations. Scan them in super hi-rez and store them using Photosynth and allow anyone to walk in a virtual library, picking books and reading them.

    The only drawbacks are installation required, availability in IE, need minimum cluster of similar photos to construct a more complete scenes.

    Questions:
    How can you sort out photos taken from different weather, time, and age? It is easy to photograph a preserved tourist spot because there will be minimal renovation to preserve historic buildings. How do you handle a city that constantly changing landscape? Good example is Hong Kong. The city pull down existing buildings and rebuild with newer buildings around the year. How do you handle constantly changing landscape?

    There are many photo switches techniques, software and plug-in for online 360 degree viewing. What are the advantages of using Photostynth over existing techniques?

    I wouldn’t be surprise if Adobe come up with similar photo viewing based on their Flash and Flex technology. Flash works well in all browsers and most users have Flash Players.

    THis reminds of the scene in BR where Dekker(sic?) inserts a photo of a living room into a machine and is able to maneuver to ‘uncaptured implied areas’ within the photo..pretty cool.

    That being said, for all the gee-wizziness about Photosynth, the technology gets in the way of enjoying the actual images. And by that i mean the shimmering silhouettes and dynaamic boxes distract and overshadow the content of the images themselves.

    Also, the install leaves much to be desired. Hopefully they’ll have an extensiion for Firefox, which everyone knows, is the the best browser available…

An active X release for pre-beta was an easy no brainer that allows more than 90 of home computer users an opportunity to try the technology while they further develop it and work on cross browser rendering. To be fair even Google does the same thing with their client based apps like Google desktop, etc. They first come out with a Windows version and then maybe come out with another version. I have been pestering them about versions of deskyop and some other apps for my Ubuntu liux box that I use for cross browser testing on web stuff for awhile and am still waiting) Moving toward cross browser/OS is something many the teams at MSFT seem to be working on so with them publicly stating that is where they are going I believe they are and you should be able to try it.

    Right now as I understand it though there’s a de-facto limit of about 300 pics for it (heresay I admit), so I imagine there are some eventual limits, but I think the “mosiac” part could be implemented in a lot of ways. Either way its a great way to get both a “broader” AND “more detailed” picture of something.

    Right now as I understand it though there’s a de-facto limit of about 300 pics for it (heresay I admit), so I imagine there are some eventual limits, but I think the “mosiac” part could be implemented in a lot of ways. Either way its a great way to get both a “broader” AND “more detailed” picture of something.
