2-D to 3-D: a New Dimension in 3-D Modeling

January 29, 2008, 11:22 am

Slashdot reports on a new Web site from Stanford computer scientists that shows off their new 3-D modeling algorithm.

The algorithm, available online, takes 2-D photos and creates 3-D models.

According to an article from the Stanford Report, “The applications of extracting 3-D models from 2-D images, the researchers say, could range from enhanced pictures for online real-estate sites to quickly creating environments for video games and improving the vision and dexterity of mobile robots as they navigate through the spatial world.” —Hurley Goodall
