"The most impressive demonstration at Sunday's IVRPC seminar was Photosynth
from Microsoft Live Labs -- a program that constructs large-scale, 3-D
models of objects like buildings from hundreds of still photographs"

"Photosynth uses a visual algorithm to scan through hundreds of images,
hunting for distinctive features. After identifying features common to
different pictures -- doors, windows and sculptures -- the program links
the photos together and calculates the 3-D position of each picture"

Though it requires either of my least favourite operating systems though so
I guess I'll not be playing with it :/
