This is one neat app. Photospeak [iTunes Link] by MotionPortrait Inc allows you to take a picture from your photo library or take a picture with the camera and with Photospeak’s own face recognition technology, they’ll detect the face and turn the face into a 3D face and make it move and blink like a real human. You can also record your voice and play it back and the mouth of the 3D picture will move like it’s really talking. Note: iPod Touch users may need a mic to record your voice.

It’s scary how realistic the results look. and not only will Photospeak work with human faces but it will also work with cartoon characters and even doodles. I have not tried Photospeak with cartoons or doodles so I can not say how good it’ll work, but it works darn well with human faces.

Unfortunately, Photospeak does not allow you to send the 3D pictures to a friend but they plan on adding that feature in the near future. Also, another downside on the current version (1.0.1) is that you can’t save multiple voices. You can only save one voice and that’s it. However, in the upcoming 1.0.2 update, you’ll be able to save multiple voices, assign a voice to each face, sending a snapshot by email, saving snapshots to the camera roll.

PhotoSpeak is at a reasonable price of $2.99USD – I believe the sweet spot would be .99USD – and you can buy/download the app in the AppStore [iTunes Link]
