Goodbye Ugly Markers? Welcome modern Augmented Reality


Earlier today, Ori published this extensive post about Red Bull’s latest augmented campaign. Have you noticed what just happened? That was natural feature tracking in Flash (powered by Imagination tech). There were no ugly black and white markers, and yet, no plugin (apart from Flash) is used. Is this the first step in the demise of fiducial markers in AR campaigns? You can play with it here.

Amazing Mobile AR Videos from Graz


Daniel Wagner and our friends from Graz University of Technology bring us another set of amazing videos (previously). Nothing I can say can beat the following videos, so I’ll just shut up, and let you enjoy.

The tracking algorithm behind it is PatchTracker that will be featured in ISMAR09. As you can see in the videos, on an Asus P565 the algorithm achieves 30 frames per second. If that’s a sign of things we are going to see at ISMAR, we are going to have a great conference!

See the third video and find more details here.
