Great graphics software. (for PC?)

I remember hearing of this technology a while ago, and it is absolutely incredible. The way that a small company can grow and then be swallowed by Microsoft is sad, but the technology is great.

It is great to look at a photo album of a family trip, but imagine looking at a 3-d image of places that you have been to, as a reminder of how incredible it is, or even as a tour of some place you want to visit.

I think that in the near future, with this software, the Seadragon team could probably even compile all the photo's of a specific place (Sistene Chapel) and actually do a 3d walkthrough of the entire environment. From the walkway, to the entrance of the main doors, and inside, looking up toward the ceiling and all the way through.

The most incredible concept is seeing a 3d image on a flat monitor. I can't wait till it goes public.

I love to use google earth, and looking at the profile of the geograpy, but with integration of Photosynth, the possibilities of seeing the ACTUAL geography of an area would be intense.
