You might have seen the article that Dusan put about about babybuilder:
…which is apparently the first interactive baby-building application for Apple (NSDQ: AAPL)’s mobile platform. It allows any two people to “get an animated glimpse into what their future or fantasy infant baby might look like.” This is done by using facial mapping and recognition algorithms that generate the realistic-looking babies from digital photos
Well, as a Dad of two already, I thought it might be interesting to try it out with my wife and I’s faces, and see if the result looked anything like our kids (yep, that’s the kind of crazy shizzle I get up to on an evening, wooooh).
Short answer: it didn’t
Longer answer: the result wasn’t much like either of our two kids, although random it did guess the hair and eye colour right of our older one. Of course, a bit of fun in an app wasn’t going to generate a life-like image of our kids, but it was worth a go 🙂 Good fun App though, I shall amuse the wife with it later 🙂
JFYI, BabyBuilder could be yours for $1.99. A free, lite version is also available.
