Weekly Linkfest and Site News
And now for some other AR news from around the web -
- Visitors at the Allard Pierson Museum in Amsterdam can see a reconstruction of the Roman Forum overlayed on top a current image of the site, using a movable iMac display (via engadget)
- JSARToolKit, the old augmented reality tool kit, now for Javascript, as long as you read Japanese, (via development memo for ourselves)
- Microsoft Israel employees are having fun creating a semi-augmented reality car race.
- Want to read augmented reality news in Polish? Then this is the site for you (but I wish they would link to their sources, *cough*).
- Tom Carpenter on AR concepts to a manufacturing enviroment. I've just found his blog, and his other posts are interesting as well.
It's iVisit's SeeScan, an application under development for Windows Mobile that intends to help the visually impaired, but could have other uses for AR (a bit more information here).

Nice move! That's one less Blogroll link needed now, I suppose.
Faithfull coverage of AR is only done by a few people on a regular basis, so it might make sense to strike now and have one preeminent go-to spot for all things AR. A nice way to build traffic, and make some money on ad revenue perhaps...
Also, it is important that we band together and make certain the potential of AR and the vision of its evolution remains focused. It wont be long before AR is getting the attention that Virtual Worlds and Location-Aware technologies are getting now. Soon enough, the mass-market will better understand how these technologies will merge together and truly transform our world. The adventure is just getting started.
Best of luck!

I second that idea. The few blogs there are tend to be updated irregularly. Possibly this is because news doesn't come that often, but I think if there was one central major blog that would be a good idea. I don't think there is enough interest for a forum at this stage, but perhaps a wiki detailing subjects such as the free software available, etc.
Great idea Rouli and thanks for the linkage. Though the link to my site is broken for me.
@Thomas -
Sorry, fixed now.
