I like to take a glimpse at future technologies so that I can see which technology changes we can expect in the next few years. This one is amazing. It has been taken right out of a Japanese news show showing how a characters appearance is changed in real time. Character is probably not the right word because what I really mean is that the real time image of a human is taken and altered in a way that offers several new interesting prospects.
The reporters hair was changed in real time for instance which would make this a wonderful application for any barber but also for others who change the appearance of people. This includes makeup, clothing and even plastic surgery I suppose.
The interactive element could also create interesting prospects for games and video systems like creating an avatar that looks exactly like you do. Take a look at the video, this is really incredible.
