The researcher team out of Tsinghua University and the National University of Singapore, has developed a system that generates a realistic digital pictures from basic, freehand sketchs annotated with text labels. The illustration below give the best example.
You can see the handrawn sketch on the left. From this sketch, their system scans the internet for potential candidate images, optimizes the best combination and creates a digital picture!
The ability to draw a situation freehand and have it converted into a realistic looking digital image within a few seconds? That's Dangerous!....and for that we thank you Sketch2Photo.
