That's just brilliant. It reminds me a bit of Microsoft's Photosynth.

I think this technique provides a lot of possibilities for future consumers. Maybe in the future you could cross-match your photos with an online database and auto-adjust the color and light balance accordingly.

E.g. Let's say you went to visit Machu Picchu on a very cloudy and rainy day. You come home and realize your photos look terrible. You put your photos in a piece of software and match them with an online set of Machu Picchu photos. You click on "auto-adjust" and hey presto, they are transformed in to a set of photos that look perfectly lit and balanced. Or am I just dreaming out loud.

So why bother taking pictures at all, when you can just find better ones online?
