Building 3D Models On the Fly With a Webcam

blee37 writes "Here is an excellent video demonstration of a new program developed by Qi Pan, a graduate student, and other researchers at the University of Cambridge. The 'ProFORMA' software constructs a 3D model of an object in real time from (commodity) webcam video. The user can watch the program deduce more pieces of the 3D model as the object is moved and rotated. The resulting graphics are of high quality."pa href="http://developers.slashdot.org/story/09/11/27/1851243/Building-3D-Models-On-the-Fly-With-a-Webcam?from=rss"img src="http://developers.slashdot.org/slashdot-it.pl?from=rssamp;op=imageamp;style=h0amp;sid=09/11/27/1851243"/a/ppa href="http://developers.slashdot.org/story/09/11/27/1851243/Building-3D-Models-On-the-Fly-With-a-Webcam?from=rss"Read more of this story/a at Slashdot./ppa href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/OekyuvmN_0R8M05_FOMk5dACLYs/0/da"img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/OekyuvmN_0R8M05_FOMk5dACLYs/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"/img/abr/a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/OekyuvmN_0R8M05_FOMk5dACLYs/1/da"img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/OekyuvmN_0R8M05_FOMk5dACLYs/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"/img/a/pimg src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/Slashdot/slashdotDevelopers/~4/7viWlEDKXG8" height="1" width="1"/
