Layar 3.0 Is Ready To Add New Layers To Your (Mobile) Reality
The whole idea of using your mobile phone’s camera view as a screen on top of which to add geo-specific information (also known as augmented reality) is one of the more exciting areas in the world of mobile apps.Brightkite/Layar advertising

Layar experiment om de openbare bibliotheek op de kaart te zette
Afgelopen week kwam ik op het weblog van Pierre Gorissen een bericht tegen over het programma Layar . Layar is een programma voor mobiele Iphone en Android telefoons met een camera, GPS en internetverbinding. De camera van de telefoon gebruik je om de omgeving te bekijken, door de GPS weet de mobiele telefoon waar je staat en welke kant je op kijkt en via het internet kunnen gegevens van bepaalde locaties in de omgeving opgehaald worden. De telefoon laat deze gegevens vervolgens als extra laag over het beeld van je camera zien (dit wordt ook wel augmented reality genoemd). Het onderstaande filmpje laat duidelijk zien hoe Layar precies werkt.openbare bibliotheek op de kaart gezet! -

Yelp Sneaks Augmented Reality Into iPhone App | Gadget Lab | Wir
Just a day after we published a feature about smartphones accelerating the development of augmented reality , Yelp sneaked a secret AR feature into an update of its iPhone app. Exclusive to iPhone 3GS owners, the feature is accessible through an Easter egg, which is activated by shaking the handset three times. A message will appear reading, “The Monocle has been activated,” and then a Monocle button will appear in the upper-right corner. Tapping that button will launch your iPhone camera, and digital overlays of business listings, accompanied by star ratings, appear on screen. The app presumably draws its geo-aware powers from the iPhone 3GS’ digital compass and GPS.Goggles for Android
