Unusual red-eye reduction technique

I was amused by this portion of a product description for a digital camera. I'm not sure that this is what I would expect from a red-eye reduction algorithm, but you have to admit it's a pretty impressive piece of image processing!

    That’s really clever - also incorporates some pretty sophisticated spatial transformations!

    Sure it is amusing… It removed red eye and moves you to a nice location in room along with a added smile on your face.

    I get your point, but still, the redeye reduction works inside the camera (it can probably be switched on and off). You have to make two shoots, to demonstrate this.

    hey how is the red eye reduction technique applied in matlab…could you please give some insight…

    Suryaveer—This post is a joke.

Wrap code fragments inside <pre> tags, like this:

<pre class="code">
a = magic(3);
sum(a)
</pre>

If you have a "<" character in your code, either follow it with a space or replace it with "&lt;" (including the semicolon).
