When Augmented Reality Fails

Here's a cute French short film bringing us another vision of augmented reality. Don't worry about the French at the few first seconds (saying that in the near future we are always connected through "cerebral chips" and "retina screens"), the visuals are self explanatory.



Though this clip is online for more than a year, I've just found about it via Life 2.0, and I think it deserves its own post.

Wow just watched that 10 seconds before I came to this site. Interesting take although that would be a very chaotic life to lead. I'm not sure I would want an arrow telling me what direction to go all the time.

Mildly creepy. Has a nice Orwellian dystipian feel to it. I like it.

This film offers a fascinating look at the potential pitfalls of AR, a refreshing change from the usual hype. It reminds me of the classic Google Snake, where a simple misstep can lead to unexpected consequences. Definitely worth a watch for anyone interested in tech's impact on our future.
