MIT certainly is the place for interesting new technology of limited use. Well, most of the time.

pointless ? I dont really thing this invention is pointless, cause I know a lot of designer who took picture, scan it, and try to make something like that. Saving time with this.

Eh that aint all that. You can do that with photoshop and a digital camera (the patter stuff).


But ya....its pretty pointless. Kinda reminds me of the thing on South Park, wehre the dude films dogs from a wide angle camera.
