So, below we have three images, see if you can guess who they are…
Exhibit A
Exhibit B
Exhibit C
If you are still wondering (I will assume you don’t live in Britain if the last two stumped you), click the read more link below for a few more faces
As promised, here we have a few more, slightly obvious ones…
Exhibit D
Exhibit E
Exhibit F
All of these are computer generated images of how people should look in twenty years time. Some people haven’t changed much at all, others, myself included, don’t look too brilliant. I wouldn’t mind, but the program doesn’t even take into account things like whether you smoke or drink!
Just for comparison, here are the original pictures I used…
Chris Merriman
David Cameron
Nick Clegg
Barack Obama
Gordon Brown
Nursultan Nazarbayev

cool, any chance of a link to the site/program, you look great by the way (in 20 years time) although I’m sure that result requires you to give up smoking and take up more exercise 🙂

Dude, I look at least 65 in that pic. I’m hoping that picture assumes I’m smoking three packs a day and knocking back a couple of bottles of vodka each evening 🙂
The program is called Prophecy Master, over at http://www.luxand.com/prophecymaster/ .
They have a few other interesting demos, but I do like their free Blink! app.
I’ve seen similar ideas on laptops with built in webcams, but you can use it on any PC with a working webcam. You basically use your face as your Windows Login password. No typing, though if the lighting is bad, it can take a while to recognise who you are.

I agree with you Chris – that photo is way scary!

I’ve just sent you an e-mail. Three pictures are on their way to you now 🙂
