Mobile phones to offer X-ray vision
Thursday, 11 March 2010, 06:53 IST
Sydney: Researchers at the University of South Australia with the collaboration of Nokia have come up with software, which will offer X-ray vision to see what's on the other side of the building, reports ANI.
Talking to Sydney Morning Herald, Christian Sandor, Researcher at University of South Australia, said that the application works by using the phone's camera. Users can point the camera at a building and an image of it would appear on the screen. Then, the image would change to show what was behind the building, as if it was no longer there.
The application is likely to be introduced in the market in the next two years. The technology, known as augmented reality, appears to be X-ray vision, but in reality it uses pictures and images that already exist in databases such as Google Earth and Google Streetview.
Explaining the usage of application, Sandor said, "The application needs two pieces of information: 3D model of the area or city the phone user is in and the user's exact position. A 3D model of a city could be built using information collected from aerial surveys." He also said that the technology could not be used to see into people's houses because only the exterior views of buildings and streets were held in the databases.

2: Its awesome to know about X-ray vision. but
they are just providing the stored details of
some objects to the persons who are using
such mobile phones. Its more useful in the
military side, bt it is not much important to
any ordinary person....

4: wow...this is the dumbest tech news I have
read recently...theres nothing innovative
about using preset images from an existing
database...Its just a simple code which
detects where your cellphone is and generates
a picture from a network...An actual xray
vision phone would have been impressive.
