Make3D — convert your image into 3d

Make3D converts your single picture into a 3-D model. It takes a two-dimensional image and creates a three-dimensional “fly around” model, giving the viewers access to the scene’s depth and a range of points of view.

It uses powerful machine learning techniques to learn the relation between small image patches and their depth and orientation. This allows it to model 3-d structures such as slopes of mountains or branches of trees.

The eggheads at Stanford have created software that will take your 2D image and create a 3D model. Pretty neat if you ask me. If you sign up you can upload your own images and see it in action. I was going create a 3D model of my giant head but I’m sure they wouldn’t be too happy with it.
