Augmented Dress Code

Cisco shows us their neat idea of a virtual mirror in the video below. I’d love to use it in a retail cloth store, but I’m afraid it’s only a marketing concept video, that points to their new technology conference. Some more videos can be seen on their website. If it were real, we would definitely have seen more footage of the mirror instead of the beautiful actress. But it’s worth a look to see the idea of augmented reality combined with a perfect tracking, overlay, great rendering, occlusion and gesture interaction like in Project Natal. Again, it’s a good sign, though. Designers define interaction concepts and product managers find use cases for AR and push it into their CEO’s and our perception with high quality videos to promote it. I love it.
