Good bitmap to vector graphic converter

Sample comparison of Vector Magic
In the past, I’ve tried a number of times to get a reasonable conversion of a bitmap graphic to a vector graphic. I have never been satisfied with the results, and have ended up creating the vector graphic from scratch. Now there is a free online tool, developed by Stanford University’s Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, which really does the trick: Vector Magic.

Just look at the samples on their website. if you’ve ever tried to use Corel Trace or Adobe Live Trace, you’ll appreciate how much better the results from Vector Magic are.
