Default ‘Face’ing the Future





Software that artificially “ages” a person’s face using a range of parameters could help find many missing persons, hope the researchers behind it.

The software tries to work out how a face may change by factoring in their personal history, family traits and population trends. Artificial aging software exists already, but this can provide only apply rough physical changes. You can find the entire article here http://www.aboutmyplanet.com/theorie...ing-the-future

Wow that would be amazing. I sure wish I could find out how I would look in 10-20 years.

I don't know if it would scare or motivate me to change other behaviours in me. Yes, we're all doing our part for the environment and that obviously will have an impact on our looks. But other things like eating organic, and exercise...that has big impacts too.

I guess I'm sort of mixed about all of this. But it's a good thing nevertheless. I'm babbling.....

This is something I heard for the forst time and sounds amazing. There can be so many useful things that can be done with this. I just thought if I had it I will immediately want to see how my present six month old will look like when he grows older.

I have heard about this before. Isn't this something like what they use on that show where they show the family what they will look like in so many years if they don't change their eating habits?
I am with you I would use it to see what my sons would look like also.

Now that I think about it, it would be interesting to submit a childhood photo (or in my case, a much younger adult photo) to see how well it works.
