For a few years now we’ve seen some cool augmented reality demonstrations. One of my favorites that I saw last year is by Matt Dickman. Although I’ve never met the guy, he walks everyone through a very cool dog-and-pony show of how augmented reality has been applied through the use of webcams. But take it a step further and it will soon be more common and accessible.
Many of us have seen apps on our phone that overlay augmented reality features on top of a live image through the eye of our camera. Or perhaps you’ve read this project in the past from the MARS program at Columbia University (1996). But I will tell everyone today, we’re all going to see this image in real-life (or “augmented life”)very soon.
