So, essentially this idea is Photoshop on steroids? |
|
|
not quite -- the idea is that you are able to actually
walk around and immersively re-experience a place
where you've
been (by having
taking an ordinary digital picture) |
|
|
The intent is good ("revisit places that you've been in, or places you've never been in") but the TNT (Tools & Tech) available today make the execution more like "watch a pixelated video game simulation of a real place" and less like "immersively re-experience" or " Wesley Crusher takes a weekend off in the holodeck ". |

However, the idea does fulfill the category, and just because it doesn't ring my bell means little or nothing. There is probably a market. |

I'm doing a lot of work with the Oculus -- it is much
more immersive than you might imagine. Granted
the tech demonstrated in the link has lots of
limitations, but it's actually pretty incredible
nevertheless |

And depending on how the T&T advances, we are either at the daguerreotype stage of a developing process, or stuck in the "we'll all have flying cars" phenom. |

Gets my vote as it includes missing out on the original mosquitoes, dysentery and vendors saying "For you I make special price" |

See link (Google Maps/Earth Wayback Machine). You
can already do that for popular public places. |

That said, google doesn't yet map the inside of my
house. So, I think it'd be nice for my kids, when
they get older, to "walk around" their childhood
home. So, I just take videos of us walking around
the house & outside. If I didn't do that, then I could
use your bakeable idea hear to stitch something
together from pics. |
