We turned a bunch of 2D images into 3D models, for viewing online. Back in 2000.
It partially failed due to the dot com collapse sucking all the oxygen out of the room.
It also failed because the technology wasn't good enough, and the resulting 3D was, frankly, pretty shitty.
- kdma 9y agoVolume rendering?
- VikingCoder 9y agoWe did lots of ways, then. In the interim, I worked with true volume rendering of CT, MR, PET data for a decade.

- VikingCoder 9y agoYes. But as impressive as creating this from a single image may be, the people viewing it won't care - the output is uselessly bad.
