if u take a photo of a human's ass and rotate it with this software do you get this

This looks cool at first glance but I see a limited use for this tool other than improvement in workflow for quick concepting of geometric shapes or simple photo editing, and even then it's very limited in what you can and can't change. Anything unique, intricate or organically shaped would likely be a nope (as you could tell from the error result of copying a simple tube of toothpaste).
These models won't be of much use for actual assets to be used in a game, movie or whatever either since no computer generation will make optimized models or texturemaps (be it for further editing or final assets) and wouldn't be able to take into account various properties the texture should have (think gloss, reflection, microdetail such as cracks or bumps etc.). These would still require a human hand to be recognized. As one guy in the video comments already said this will improve workflow, but is not going to revolutionize the industry.

edit:
If you want to look at something revolutionary, you should take a look at some of the demos that are being put out for the oculus rift. The possibilities with that thing...
Take a look at this demo for example:

The oculus rift one? It sure wasn't

I bet that's the "very official" commercial and if it is, you're lucky the video is removed because that would be instaban since it depicts porn lol

why would oculus rift market r-rated shit
dumb move

Re: Extracting 3D objects from a photo and then editing them right away

The video prawnskunk posted is not marketed by oculus rift. It's some guy making a joke out of the porn possibilities for oculus but it has nothing to do with the creators of oculus (hence the "very official").

On that matter, close to none of the demos posted are officially endorsed by oculus rift. The demos are not made by the creators of oculus, but by other people who have the developer's kit so that's like blaming computers for bad content. The Oculus Rift is only the virtual reality kit that comes with a couple of official demos.

The oculus rift video immediately makes me think of VR military training. Which then reminds me of Metal Gear Solid. Which makes me fangirl.

I just had a scary idea. Imagine if a similar technique could be used with a video. As long as the object would remain in the screen of a continuous scene, you could like pause the first frame of the scene, snap a character/object, and then have the software scan the scene until the disappearance of said character/object to load as much model info as the animation goes and also gather information about the background coupled with the image completion AI soft. Then you can just reanimate everyone and everything into whatever the fuck you want. Redo key Titanic scenes by making everyone do the gangnam style dance. Falsify surveillance camera footage. Do just about anything.

I have a feeling that this will happen sooner than we imagine.

this all means we're one step closer to having holograms of people js
