Augmented Reality
PopScopic is an interesting mashup that uses augmented reality to enhance your shopping experience.
On PopScopic, you can print out three symbols that are linked to the top ten lists for music, movies and games. Then, just fire up your webcam and put one of those symbols in front of it, and you’ll see the cover art from the top ten list projected in front of you. You can tilt the paper to change selections, and then just tap on the $ sign to visit a page where you can buy that item.
It’s not a world changing experience by any means, but it is a peak into the future of shopping, and it’s fun and easy to play around with, so check it out!

There’s a good chance augmented reality will change the way we interact with information in the very near future, as this demo shows the potential that AR can have on a simple story book when combined with a video camera that has been integrated into a desk lamp:

Julian Oliver’s levelHead is an incredibly unique game that uses augmented reality to turn hand-held, solid-plastic cubes into little rooms that are logically connected by doors.
The player moves the character by tilting the cube, and the goal is to move the character from room to room in order to find the exit. The trick is, some doors lead nowhere and send the character back to the room they started in, so the game challenges your spatial memory as you must remember which doors belong to which room.
It sounds simple, but when you see it in action, you can start to get an idea for just how unique this concept really is:
For now, it’s just an art installation, but hopefully someone makes this a real product soon, because I’d love to play the home version!
