Gagandeep Singh Anand, 26, uploaded images of his grandfather Harbans Singh and grandmother Narinder Kaur to the My Heritage website so they could be animated. Gagandeep, from Northern California Bay Area, his brother, Ishwardeep Singh Anand, 27, and their friend Abdullah Rashidi were playing about on the website which uses the free technology called Deep Nostalgia to animate photos with strangely realistic results. The amazed father put his hands together as if in prayer as he stared at the image of his father. Gagandeep shared his emotional footage online with the caption 'Showing my parents their parents.' It has been developed by researchers at Israel-based firm D-ID, which specialises in video reenactment using deep learning.
