Wikitude Drive!
Come Friday, and Wikitude produces a new rabbit out of its head. Wikitude Drive is a natural extension to "AR browser" applications, providing on screen directions and augmented arrows you could follow to arrive to your destination. And this time, you don't have to understand my cumbersome description, since the press release was "augmented" with a Youtube clip:
I guess that it's not that useful when driving, but when it comes to walking directions, that's an application I would love to have at hand.
More details, here.

I find the whole idea of mobile augmented reality while driving scary. As part of a HUD in the windscreen it's fine but holding up a mobile phone and trying to follow directions is just wrong.
Yes, exactly, that's why I think it (Wikitude Drive) is not that useful for getting around while driving.
Hello, actually the phone is not supposed to be held while driving. In this video I am not the driver of course. I'm just holding the phone and do the filming. Regards,
Ph
