Smoothly [0]interpolating away objects in still pictures is impressive
enough, but reader geoffbrecker writes with a stunning demonstration from
Germany's Technical University of Ilmenau of [1]on-the-fly erasure of
selected objects in video. Quoting: "The effect is achieved by an image
synthesizer that reduces the image quality, removes the object, and then
increases the image quality back up. This all happens within 40
milliseconds, fast enough that the viewer doesn't notice any delay."
