Has anyone else noticied that no one actually ever uses an augmented reality website (webcam etc) they just look at the movie of it and go "wow, that's amazing, shame I don't have a webcam and can't be arsed to print something out"?

That's a good point, I assume it's because they just aren't ready for it.

or because it a pain in the arse ...
true about the clients, everyone seems to want to jump on this bandwagon ... I have one I'm building now. Can't wait to see how many people actually use it.

easiest way is to have your touch screen / large flat panel screen to display the mark. Try it.

It's a gimmick until the point they have a mass market headset I can put on and watch shit fly across the room, check my e-mail walking down the street, ceiling cat pops out of the sky etc.

I've used it before.... I had to print something on paper and the webcam recognized it. Then a windmill popped out of the page and I could blow on it and spin the blades..... gotta find the link again and post it.

If 'Augmented Reality' didn't sound so cool it wouldn't be...

You guys are such haters. Shit like this NEEDS to be around and used so that it will advance into bigger, cooler things.
Bitching about AR in it's present state is like making fun of a six year old girl because her tits are too small.
Why don't you spend time coming up with cool applications for it Instead of trying to think of all the poor ones?

Went to a conference the other week with some examples of AR on show. The best example that I saw was used by one LEGO Store where kids could hold the box up to a camera and see on the screen what the toy would look like when it is fully built and in motion.
