Interesting, uber-practical application for augmented reality meets mobile technology from http://tat.se.
"Augmented ID is a TAT concept that visualizes the digital identities of people you meet in real life. With a mobile device and face recognition software from Polar Rose, Augmented ID enables you to discover selected information about people around you. All users control their own augmented appearance, by selecting the content and social network links they want show to others. Modifying your augmented ID is easier than fixing your hair in real life and, of course, TAT Cascades will make sure you look great! "
jagtag a swimsuit model
This year’s Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue incorporates 2D barcode technology from Jagtag (www.jagtag.com.) Using just about any mobile phone equipped with a camera, horn-dogs can shoot an image of the barcode and, in return, receive an MMS message (sorry iPhonies) containing up to 14 pictures of babes in bikinis. Interesting way to extend the magazine experience beyond the printed page.
