I don’t know if you have any impression of the “moving photos” in “Harry Potter”?
When I watched it before, I always envied these freeze-frame photos.
Of course, Apple later released a photo called LivePhoto. Although the presentation effect of this “dynamic photo” is a very short video, it can be regarded as a magic with technology.
However, this kind of “moving photos” is only for newly taken photos. Is there any way to make those old photos move?
A while ago, there really was a company that made this technology.
This company is called myheritage, and they use a technology similar to DeepFake to make aThe software for moving photos.
As long as users upload old photos to the APP or website, they will automatically create a “dynamic photo” that will move in a few seconds according to the orientation of their head.
The principle of this technology is not complicated. MyHeritage will record a lot of videos of people turning their heads from different angles, and then automatically select the appropriate model for each face according to the face orientation of the photo uploaded by the user. Finally, the video and photo are combined to output this magical “meeting” Moving old photos”.
Originally, this software was not actually the main business of the company. It was just an experimental small application that also used photos of historical celebrities as a spoof.
But what people did not expect was that this software was so popular that countless netizens on Twitter are using this software.
The purpose of using this software is not to spoof, but to miss their loved ones.
” Because of this softwareI have been crying, thank you @Myheritage for making this possible, I really miss my dad. “
” Last year my friend passed away suddenly due to a heart attack. One year has passed but it is just like yesterday for me. I miss him very much. I heard about this @Myheritage app, so I tried it. Tears in my eyes, thank you You guys!”
“It’s been a year since my grandfather passed away yesterday. I tried this app that makes still pictures move. My mother really likes this and keeps playing it in a loop. DeepFake is too real!”
“Use @Myheritage makes my mother’s picture move. She has been away from me for 22 years. “
There are many stories like this. Some people have lost their relatives, but with this App they can see their relatives smiling at them again.
Some people have only seen their relatives in photos, and with this App, they can finally see their relatives moving.
For young people, this App is just one of countless Internet spoof apps, but for some elderly people, this technology is very precious.
In their time, there was no such thing as a video. Even a photo might be one or two. With this App, these old people can once again see their relatives as if they are alive and smile at them.
Some young people on the Internet helped their grandparents to make the photos dynamic, and then showed them to them. These old people laughed and then cried and burst into tears.
But among them, the thing that moved me the most was the reaction of a child. He lost his father when he was two years old. He has never seen his father smile at him, but this app made him see his father move. The way he smiled.
The child cried in a hug with his brother.
Finally, tell interested friends how to use this App.
The first step is to enter myheritage.com
You can register an account yourself, or you can log in directly with your Google account.
After entering, select Animate Photos in the Family Tree at the top.
Upload your photo here, I chose Mr. Lu Xun’s photo as an example.
Then wait for a while, the photo will be generated, you can directly click to download the video, and you will be able to see the moving photo.
Some things on the Internet may be just Tu Yi Le, but this kind of tool used to “Tu Yi Le” is a precious memory for some people.
We always talk about “technology for good”, but there are not so many things that technology can bring happiness to people.
This may be one of them.
