Heh. We are of the generation that will say AR will addle kids minds and that it will turn their minds into mush, and isn't it cold outside.

It's a glimpse into a big exciting future starting soon isn't it , assuming the world doesn't blow up and the west can afford the east's devices, minerals and raw materials (and ignoring the apathy here). Anyone used Google goggles?

Augmented reality

Looks cool and is no doubt going to go big time in future. For instance real time overlays of scenes or things you point your camera at, directions, descriptions and places of interest, etc.

Or how about this new app:

Word Lens - augmented reality word translator launched | News | TechRadar UK
which translates any Spanish text that it detects.

Anyone seen any other good examples of augmented reality?
