[Web4lib] Obama and the Checkerboard Buddha

[Robert Balliot]

On January 20, 2009 CNN IReporters will collaborate at the inaguration of
Barack Hussein Obama to create a first of its kind immersive experience.
They will use the new software from Microsofts Live Labs - Photosynth - to
create a 3D panorama at the moment Barack Obama is sworn in to become our
44th President. Photosynth shows great promise in creating an unique user
experience. *Checkerboard Buddha on the Rocks* was Photosynthed with 103
images from a Canon ELPH. Use the expand view to go to full-screen. Immerse
yourself in the Buddha by pressing the character *p* on your keyboard and
finding your inner doughnut:
