So you've hit on a few "definitely makes thew world a worse place" ideas... Also, I don't think any of your explanations require - and they'd possibly be made _worse_ by doing the 3d reconstruction/calculations. There's no benefit for surveillance (that I can see) from reconstructing the 3D geometry. Your (arguably evil) applications just require high enough resolution (in 2D) to run accurate-as-available face recognition.

I agree this is scary. I should also say this is about more than just spying on people, and some of the uses, probably the less impactful ones, are not evil. There is a lot you could do with a real time model of the world. Like I said, I haven't thought of the best uses for it.

  That's where I ended up - this is a fascinating solution looking for a problem. I love the idea. I'm not convinced there's "massive useful use cases" for it.
