I think that’s one of the best linkfests in a while. Judge for yourself: A long and illustrated (by Youtube videos, of course) survey by The Next Web: Augmented reality: The past, present and future (via @yoav85) A couple of weeks ago Qualcomm held its Uplinq conference. Xconomy has a nice review of Qualcomm’s AR [...]

Sadly, I wasn’t able to be there, but luckily, Augmented Citizen share some thoughts and presentations from the event, Locative Media have some “pirated videos” of the keynotes and Layar uploaded videos of a couple of their presentations [...]

ARE2011 is only two days away, and I’m going to miss it (this time its my fault, and I can’t blame Delta Airways). I’m a lame excuse for an AR blogger, I know. If you go there, please shoot some videos and share! Here are a few AR news stories to make the wait seem [...]

Personally, I find tablet devices boring (not that I will object getting one). They simply pale in comparison to some of Mac Funamizu’s creations. But, as the iPad2 is all the rage right now, here are a few augmented reality demos running on it, making it a little bit cooler. If you have a video [...]

Markerless tracking has come a long way in the last year. The downside of this system is the custom graphics for the visual manual. It’s hard enough writing instructions for thousands of jobs in a production facility right now. This system would need to be leveraged on mass market jobs like oil changes at Jiffy [...]

As always, here the augmented reality news stories and tidbits, I didn’t have the time (or will) to cover this week: ISMAR11 call for papers is online, abstracts due May 11th The Guardian asks what is mobile AR for, and whether we should look for an augmented reality killer application. Georgia Tech’s Argon, “the first [...]

You can’t find a date using augmented reality yet (?), but you can sure do other things with it: You can control lights around your home with this very nice use of Qualcomm’s AR SDK.
