The international symposium on mixed and augmented reality closed its doors after a week of augmented craziness. Thanks to the committee for organizing the event and holding it in Florida. I’m sure more and more videos will hit the Internet sooner or later, documenting a bit more of current state of the art augmented reality. And a clap on the […]

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 […]

Earlier I reported on the unfortunate death of the AR android browser gamaray. The team of Clayton Lilly decided to stop the development and focus on other android/smartphone projects. Gamaray was the first open available android AR browser, that would superimpose 3D geometry to your view. Now the generous team has opened up their sources and put it all on […]

ISMAR is running and draws all attention and time. So, augmented reality blog postings are going down a bit for now, since everbody is just to busy being there physically. :-) As last year Ori Inbar writes a nice first impression collection on his website gamesalfresco.

Chris O’Shea contacted me and pointed me to their website, that documents a neat street art installation, using some augmented reality in the broader sense. Take a look for yourself: a big screen in the pedestrian zone of Liverpool (so far) that shows a live feed of the street. A digital mirror to see yourself from bird’s eye perspective. But […]

Just another short post on AR awareness! Meet the London AR community and check out the event Lester and the staff from augmentedplanet are organizing. They are putting together an augmented reality community event in London on November, 11th, for enthusiasts and to show off the latest cutting edge AR works. It’s going to be held in the evening and […]

Lee Brimelow from Adobe’s flash/flex/air department talks at Adobe’s Max 2009 about the usage of Flartoolkit and Papervision to create Flash Augmented Reality applications. So if you are interested in Flash AR development, but somehow never understood the workflow or how the matrix convertion works or just feel like watching a 60 minutes video on this topic, go ahead and […]
