Augmented Reality

We are living in the future.




The above video is real. It's from Georgia Tech University.
More information can be found here; Augmented Environments.



And another example of this technology. Not as amazing but unbelievably fun to watch.





Upon further reading on Augmented Reality technology I found this;

"Examples of how this could be used include pointing your iPhone's camera at a building and the phone telling you what building it is by combining GPS, accelerometer and compass information. The iPhone could even overlay graphics and text on top of the image to provide additional information. Another application described is the ability to show information about stars and constellations simply by pointing your iPhone towards the sky."
