    I quite like considering QR or Sema codes (etc) as a form of AR, being that they can be used to augment real world spaces with links to virtual space data. Even aside from their being used as spatial reference points with which to overlay graphical data, just having a hyperlink can be construed as augmentative.

    As potentially terrifying as they are, the idea of embedding RFID-like data motes into *everything* (as dreamed about so much in the early JAVA days) could also be construed as a form of 'Augmentative Reality'.

    Basically - everything we do in tech terms from now on will be 'Augmentative', in my opinion.

    It isn't just about the cool 3d graphics...
