I like the filter-by-distance option.
Seems small, but as AR takes off, I can imagine that becoming a standard feature of outdoor AR Browsers.

I can see massive potential, but that “Point and Find” video is awfull. Maybe its just me, but I cant help but be put of by those sorts of corporate videos.
At the very least though, Point and Find will help push more open alternatives

Must admit I’m finding it hard to work out what You Tubing is about.
I’m guessing the goal is to lay down witty “replys” to videos using the cards you have?
Could be fun, but probably get repedative unless they are allowed more to start I think.

Occipital’s stuff is very cool. They should do something about the weird holes appearing at the photo-points though. Even a low-res cover from other photos should be possible and look better. (at least it would be the right colour)
The melted-world look is odd, but functional enough.

overall, lots of good work :)
