(via YouTube by MicrosoftResearch )Beamatron is a new, augmented-reality concept that combines a projector and a Kinect camera on a pan-tilt moving head. The moving head is used to place the projected image almost anywhere in a room. Meanwhile, the depth camera enables the correct warping of the displayed image for the shape of the projection surface and for the projected graphics to react in physically appropriate ways. For example, a projected virtual car can be driven on the floor of the room but will bump into obstacles or run over ramps. As another application, we consider the ability to bring notifications and other graphics to the attention of the user by automatically placing the graphics within the user's view.

Imagine a travel billboard or a work of art or even a business card coming to life as you point your smartphone at it. That's the idea behind Aurasma, the augmented reality platform demonstrated at The Connected Traveler Technology Showcase at The New York Times Travel Show 2012. Timely information and videos can be associated with the still images and delivered on the screens of mobile devices triggered by the still images.http://www.aurasma.com http://www.connectedtraveler.com

Lets see how AR can transform the usual class room to interactive fun filled place
Virtual fitting room with real-time clothing simulation and animation for in-store virtual mirror and digital signage solutions for retailers, brands, and shopping malls. The avatar-based system shown here displays a life-like animated and customizable avatar that the operator or users can control using Kinect-driven gestures or a touchscreen in real-time for virtual try-on. The avatar can be customized (gender, hair, skin, ethnicity, and facial features) as well as the body size, body shape, and measurements. The measurements can be taken from a 3D body scanner or Kinect body scan, or taken by a customer service representative or by the users themselves. Users' photos can be used to model the avatar face. The user selects the virtual clothes from the brand's catalogue, tries them on the avatar and selects one of the available pre-recorded animation sequences to display the clothes in motion. Users will then be able to save and share real-time videos and screenshots of the virtual model dressed in the brand's clothes on the web and to share to Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, and other social networks, and by email to friends.
Marvel has jumped on the augmented reality bandwagon with an app that brings panels in its paper comics to life on a handset's screen.
The company is pushing hard to move into the digital age through a modernisation process it calls 'Marvel ReEvolution'.
The first part of that process is the app, Marvel AR, which aims to complement a paper comic with additional supplements. Each issue will feature around eight panels that spring into action when viewed through a smartphone.This gives the publisher the ability to bundle DVD-style extras, such as editors' views and artists' impressions, with each of its releases, it said
The app will also see characters come to life in 3D, jumping out the page to wow those who are easily impressed.The second part of ReEvolution is the launch of a series of digital-only releases called Marvel Infinite Comics. These will be available to readers through the Marvel Comics app when they buy a physical or digital issue of the standard comic. They'll also be sold separately as a download.
The Marvel AR app will hit smartphones for free on 2 April.

(via YouTube by aliencurv )Have you seen my Real Wall-e robot? Well, this is my latest addition! You can now experience life as Wall-e. Wearing Vuzix Virtual Reality glasses with built-in accelerometer combined with my EZ-Builder Robot Control Software, you can now see what Wall-e sees AND control his head movements with your head! It's like switching bodies with a robot!
The images on the paper have unique images which my software is able to recognize. When the software recognizes the images, I've added a simple script to play an audio file in response to the character. I use PR-T the salon robot, Eve his girlfriend, and the terrible captain.
I control Wall-e's movements by using a Wii Remote Control. With the Wiimote I can also control Wall-e's hand position by moving the Wiimote up and down, back and forth.
It is amazing to experience the view from a robot!
