Sep 17 2007Motion Portrait Animates Still Photos

Motion Portrait takes a single photograph and digitizes it while extracting 3D information so that it can be animated. Right now the animation options are pretty limited, and it reminds me of this thing, but I see the potential. Soon you'll be able to take a digital picture of yourself, upload that bad boy to your favorite porno movie, and then watch yourself have the sex your hand can't provide. Oh, and if the picture is any indication of quality, the program does less conversion to CG, and more conversion to smack addict.
A video after the jump showing the transformation.

So.....does the program add in the teeth itself, or would you have to tell it to? Jesus, complete info please.

Perhaps based on the tech from this?
