全周ズームと鳥瞰ズームでより迫力のある拡張現実ブラウザを（デモビデオ付き） — Tue, 08 Sep 2009 05:29:25 +0000

[...] 今のモバイル開発でいちばんおもしろくていちばん活発な分野の一つが、拡張現実(augmented reality, AR)をブラウズするブラウザだ。SafariやOperaのようにWebページをブラウズするブラウザと違って、ARブラウザは電話機のカメラのレンズが映し出す現実世界の上に、情報の層をオーバラップする。昨年のTechCrunch50ではTonchidotのSekai CameraがARブラウザをデモしてみんなをあっと言わせたし、LayarのARブラウザはヨーロッパで話題になっており、また今年の夏はARのテクノロジが初めて一般市場に登場した。Yelpが最新のiPhoneアプリケーションにAR機能をこっそり忍び込ませたし、Androidの上でもAR機能のあるアプリケーションが増えつつある。 [...]

they mentioned its use with mobile coupons. simple decisions about where to eat when short on cash could easily be solved when you can pull up restaurant locations and mobile coupons they offer.

As a tech writer Layar and AR in general is some of the most interesting tech I have come across in a while. But I don’t have any commercial interest. Hard to take a comment like this too seriously though when it’s anonymous.

You should disclose your obvious bias for the tech. Which AR company do you represent?

Yep, tech isn’t; but easy of use is. It’s really painful to enter any info on a mobile device, so the less we have to, the better.

You’re right about the “not in Silicon Valley” aspect. In Silicon Valley you put on glasses and get the data.

I don’t think this one is the best application of the technology. It’s just an example and I liked the capture from the magazine and the music in the video See the Layar site for lots of different applications – mobile coupons is one of my favourites from a practicality point of view.

It depends a lot on the application. I don’t necessarily want info overlaid over my field of view all the time – just when I need it. One of the first layars was for a real-estate site in the Netherlands. As someone who often sees a house for sale in Amsterdam and thinks “have to check that when I get home” being able to point the camera and get the info straight away is a great convenience. Of course you can look up the web site but that’s a lot less immediate even when you do it on your phone.

The winner will be the one with the better content, aka Google. The tech is not important here
