Augmented Reality 2010 Horizon Report - 2 views

  •  
    Augmented Reality is enhancing the world around us by using electronic devices to create a reality that is supplemented (or "augmented") with additional information. Sometimes this is location based (using GPS) or uses QR Codes (with QR code readers) and most often with handheld devices making this truly possible. These links are from the Horizon Report 2010.

Technology News: Privacy: The Trouble With Augmented Reality and Other Cool Tech - 2 views

      this article brings up the downside of too much technology that could/will/is invading our privacy. It also mentions freedom of choice or customization. Most of the time when I thought of customization I thought of changing the color of something to My favorite color or re-writing something, or choosing how a teacher taught me to fit my learning style, etc... but this article brings up a valid point that collides new technology with privacy with customization. We are consumers and contributers to society should be able to choose what information we want shared with the world via facebook, twitter, Google Maps, etc. If augmented reality is going in a direction where it over lays our flickr photos onto the real world (Bing Maps) and allows us to view someones live video feed from the phone (Bing Maps) then we should chose whether we want that information shared or not....etc...

      I looked this up sometime around last November and immediately explored the website. It's incredible how far it has come since '07.
  •  
    This tedtalk discusses how Microsoft is building augmented reality into searchable maps and is from Blaise Agüera y Arcas with Microsoft. This software is supposed to transform how we look at digital images. This is fascinating and also a topic that the students of NetGenEd will be reviewing as part of their research into augmented reality.

Frijj to launch augmented reality campaign | News | New Media Age - 0 views

  •  
    "Augmented reality will allow Frijj customers to interact with the brand by holding up a bottle in front of a webcam to gain access to a real- time environment. A Frijj Swamp Soccerette then appears to climb out of the bottle and perform an on-screen cheer." An interesting take on commercial use of AR.
