    I didn't see a single photo what is the point of this? Those tiny things could have been anything and just random polygons on the ground...

    So it takes multiple pictures and turns them into a 3D environment. My question is, why does every building look like a bunch of dots? The pictures people take of buildings are much bigger and should provide more detail no? Or is it only using the 2D images from different angles to determine the 3D shape of a building without providing detail?

    @Purple Monkey Dishwasher: I don't know exactly how it works with this, but when using stuff like Boujou to make a 3D scene from video all it produces is a 3D cloud of dot's, the barebones shape is there still though, but it doesn't knock out a 3D model.

    I still think the module should be named "Orbital Micro-Gravity 1 Space Module 1".


    OMG! Space Module! has such a nice ring to it.

    @OMG! Ponies!: Well, sure, that's nice, I guess. Personally, I think it would be much more appropriately and descriptively named as the Behemoth Orbital Space Station Keeping an Elliptical Vector.

    @bosskev: Of course, there's also Bilaterally Ordered Space Station Kinetically Enhanced Vehicle. Either name clearly has an even nicer ring to it over your odd suggestion.

    Very cool tech. Anyone familiar enough with it to know if it can export a 3d model of the space?

    So wait, they didn't have an Obama hologram in the studio like they did election night? What a gyp. I mean, if you invest in all this tech, you should keep using it till people embrace it, or get so sick of it, they sabotage it, and not just use it once.

    i dont understand one thing about microsoft and google. google made the voice recognition for the iphone platform first, and now microsoft is putting the seadragon app on iphone first as well. Isn't it in best interest for both companies to put apps on their respecitve platforms first? i understand if they put the app on the iphone after their own platform because well iphone is very popular (but i think its just a fad, it will wear off soon enough)

    @Matthew Izberskiy: It also helps to understand a bit of how Microsoft is structured. In the Nineties, when Microsoft was fighting the DOJ on antitrust charges, it compartmentalized its divisions. WinMo is part of the Devices Division; this would fall under Products & Services.


    The Divisions were designed to be as self-contained as possible in case the company was broken up.

    But I suppose Seadragon costs $398, is protected up the wazoo, and will face a mandatory replacement a year or two down the road?
