3-D Models Created by a Cell Phone

You guys have to see this in action to believe it. Very impressive stuff done with simple cell phone camera (can be done with a regular camera too), watch this:

To capture a car in 3-D, for example, a person needs to take a handful of photos from different viewpoints around it. The photos can be instantly sent to a cloud server for processing. The app then downloads a photo-realistic model of the object that can be smoothly navigated by sliding a finger over the screen. A detailed 360 degree view of a car-sized object needs around 40 photos, a smaller object like a birthday cake would need 25 or fewer.
