Have you ever wondered about your future looks? Probably, yes. There is a new way to find them. New software can show actual photos of what you will look like in the future!

Computer scientists from the University of Washington developed some special software. If you scan a picture of a young child¡¯s face, the software automatically predicts what the child will look like in the future. What is more interesting is that it does not need many pictures, but only one.

The software randomly choose pictures of thousands of faces, grouped by age and gender. After analyzing and calculating the changes among the faces, it applies those changes to a new photo. Users can see their future looks up to the age of 80 in about 30 seconds.

¡°When shown images of an age-progressed child photo and a photo of the same person as an adult, people are unable to reliably identify which one is the real photo,¡± said Steven Seitz, one of the software¡¯s developers.

The scientists said that the software would soon be available to the public in the near future. Let¡¯s wait and see to check our future looks with it.
