Slow week, or am I at fault for not paying attention to the augmentosphere?
- Qualcomm releases an iOS version of their AR SDK. I guess now I’m left out of excuses for not developing any AR app on my own.
- Face detection is coming in iOS5, but will be probably used only to make “funny” pictures.
- Cool augmented dressing room, powered by Kinect, which makes the clothes look a little bit more realistic and less pasted on your body. (via augmented.org)
- AR on billboards: dance with virtual dancers in Kuala Lumpur.
- AR Dodge Ball from TU Munich. Is it a HUD on your face or are you just a weirdo?
This week’s video is without a doubt this one from The Heavy Projects – I never got so many retweets as I did after tweeting about it (if you don’t follow me I’m @augmented). Harnessing the power of Junaio, the billboards of Times Square are repainted with original street art. I think the guys from Artvertiser had this idea first, but it’s pretty neat to see it actually implemented. I just wonder whether it’s ok with Junaio’s terms of use.
Have a great week!
