Video: High-res image enlargement tech for PS3 and PSP takes extreme closeups to a new level

Quote:

The GigaPan has opened new doors in ridiculously high-resolution imagery, creating pictures so huge our feeble human minds can't hope to comprehend them. Sony's getting in on the action, not so much with the idea of capturing historic events at gigapixel resolutions, but providing the same sort of effect by linking multiple documents and items together and allowing you to zoom from one to the next. The video after the break shows a number of demonstrations, including what looks to be a release calendar that, inside each cell, contains high-resolution photos and even videos of whatever is releasing that day. Hidden advertising is also possible, like a mosquito on a man's face tagged with an ad only apparent after you've gotten uncomfortably close to the poor man's face. The adult entertainment opportunities are endless. Also demo'd is a new voice recognition library for the PS3, dubbed PS3VR, which can take you straight to your Cindi Lauper albums even if you're not a girl and are seemingly disinterested in having fun. That tech isn't quite so interesting, but it and the high-resolution libraries are intended for release to developers... eventually.

From Engadget. This tech looks very cool. It's a combination of ultra-high resolution images and seamless branching to other images, hyperlinks, as well as videos as demoed in the first video.

The second video shows some voice recognition tech.

The enlargement idea is blowing my mind, not because that's a really original idea but because I'm imagining how, if taken seriously, it could or could not improve on existing navigation systems with various methods of human input, differing screen resolutions/resolution independence, layout preference and so on.

I need to think this through later with a fresh mind.

I think it would go great with a motion wand and/or touch screen.

Whoa! I'm surprised that there is no lag whatsoever in the close up. Very cool!
