And the Wired article I found the vid. on:

http://www.wired.com/design/2013/09/jaw-dropping-software-that-makes-3d-models-from-any-old-photograph/

Wow...(surely agree...) ;-)

jamie_c

Wow, that really is awesome!

LumpApps

Hm... looks like tricksery!

just a cool useful thing

BoomshackBarry

That's clever!

VolontaArts

this is crazy

Braydon_SFX

I'm getting an error when trying to follow that link.

That's pretty awesome! Mind blowing, in fact! Thanks for sharing!

gyroscope

It is amazing, isn't it, Bray. The power of algorithms, and all that... :-)

I checked the link and I'm not getting any problems though... does it fire up if you copy and paste the link into your browser address window?

And thanks to all the other guys' comments too; glad you're as impressed as I am!

BoomshackBarry

Yep the link works for me too.

HalfBakedProductions

Very cool, will definitely get it when it comes out

UtopianGames

Wow looks very cool.

Darren.

When will this be available, if ever?

@blue_elephant

You're guess is as good as mine! Although the last sentence in the Wired article gives some hope: "Chen says they’re (Tel Aviv University) trying to figure out how to get a demo version out to the public as soon as possible." Fingers crossed that'll be sooner rather than later... :-)

would be great for making 3D assets from real world objects..

matarua

Don't you love seeing stuff like this happen

gyroscope

Thanks to all those who commented. :-)

....First and last *bump* for anyone else who might be interested in seeing the vid I found in my googlings....

Gotta keep a close eye on this one. Thank you for posting this. This is the best 2D image to 3D software I've seen yet. It'll make a huge impact on the 3D community.

OskarDeveloper

Mindblown!

RThurman

What an amazing demonstration. That software will be revolutionary to the graphically challenged (like me).

Wow, how exciting, I hope they don't take too long to release it to the public.
