Epson has joined the race to make the first consumer available smart glasses, having joined forces with Meta and Columbia University. However, as with Project Glass, remains to be seen whether they can live up to the hype and exciting features as shown in the promotional video.

It was only a matter of time before this happened. Playboy has teamed up with Layar to create an 'enhanced' experience for viewers of their Dutch edition of the magazine, likely to be a controversial piece of marketing.

Just came across this a blog by Markus Caspari focusing on Augmented Reality & Marketing. While the rest of his blog is very interesting, I wanted to draw particular attention to his overview of the augmented reality landscape, showing different organisations, developers, applications, events etc. involved in AR. Although I have heard of a good number of these, there is clearly still a lot of research to be done.

Another alternative use for AR, this time an augmented reality puzzle by Ravensburger, a leading global supplier of puzzles and games. the app brings the puzzle to life, allowing the user to explore the scenic location, allowing a 360 degree rotation to see information of the surrounding area also.

Junaio is an augmented reality browser, similar to Wikitude and Layar, but focusing mainly on points of interests and landmarks. Appears to have quite a good database, and a nice, simple user interface.
