Its a gimick to draw the eye to give a product attention.

But only in terms of advertising.
In terms of…well…actual real applications, AR has the potential to improve almost everything. It will be about as “niche” as computers themselfs are :P

That star-trek arg I havnt been following, but actualy the us of AR seems a little better then most.
To start with, you got a photo-marker used there, and secondly there seems some gesture reconition beyond mere moving the marker about. (allthough still very crude).

Oh, and I absolutely approve of the YouTube channel!
