Some other AR news from around the web:
- Mobilizy the company behind Wikitude, is now developing an application named Zenith to augment your night skies. "You point your camera at the night sky - and get a star map", according to this article from the BBC. A very cool (and relatively simple) idea!
- Robert Rice relaunched Neogence's site. Still not a lot of info about what they are all about.
- YDreamers are playing in an augmented world.
- In 2002 we were promised augmented reality navigation systems for our cars. I, for one, am still waiting.
Some news concerning this site:
- Please welcome our newest tag - "Novelty AR". I'll use this tag to mark any post that concerns augmented reality that was done in the sake of augmented reality and not much more. Usually this definition fits all those AR projects that augment a very specific item, and don't really augment reality, such as Topps' augmented baseball cards, the Mini ad and GE's smart grid. I took the term "Novelty AR" from Robert Rice who defined it as “cool for five minutes but ultimately a waste of time.”
