Software generates photos from your sketches

Too lazy to actually get out and take pictures? Then you might want to check out Photosketch, an interesting research project by researchers at Tsinghua University. Starting with a basic sketch consisting of shapes and tags describing what you want, the software searches a database of images and finds things that will fit.

Their site is suspiciously down, at the moment, however kottke posted a link to their research paper. Hopefully this actually gets released!

[Thanks Stuart!]
