This app  will  let you take a selfie with  the dear departed.
March 29 2017:Maybe we should call it a Deadfie.  Very soon, you will be able to create a selfie of yourself -- with  a near and dear person who has passed away. Sounds creepy? Maybe, but  it grabbed  headlines at this year's Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, when South Korean company Elrois,  showed off their app, WithMe,  which lets you ‘resurrect’  a dead  person, and makes  him or her react,  gesture, move around -- and join you in a selfie.The app  needs a 3D scan of the deceased person, generated  from a photo,  to recreate his/her image and visual personality. It creates an  ‘avatar’ of  a person and animates the image  in real-time.  Artificial Intelligence  tools allow it to decipher your facial expressions and moods and makes the avatar respond to it.
Right now the  app needs   you  to upload a 3D image, not easy to obtain. But in the days to come, you can  just  upload a picture, the 3D modelling will be done by the app itself, and the avatar will come alive.Next time someone says, ‘see you on the other side’, you know what they mean!
