The guys at Metaio in San Francisco have just launch an augmented reality vision video for some of the products they are working on.

Ok this application is obviously not for us guys. We are happy visiting one shop, trying on one pair of jeans and then going home. Once we get home, If the jeans are too big or too small then we’ll either just live with it or buy another pair. The Zugara application is not going [...]

The Transformers ‘We Are Autobots’ demo has been around for a month now.  What’s good about the demo is rather than have you printing out a marker it uses head tracking technology.

ReadWriteWeb have rather longer description of the application, take a look here. Between you an me, me and a few buddies have been looking at building something [...]
