Top 10 Augmented Reality Concept Games – Part I Home » Desktop , News , Opinion , Technology Having just finished another xBox 360 game I’m thinking about my next game purchase. Augmented Reality has the potential to revolutionize gaming so today we’ll look at the top 10 list of augmented reality games that I really want to play. The caveat is none of these games are available, some of these are still concepts, some are in beta, and others… well have disappeared. So think of this list as my top 10 wish-list. {*style:<b>10: Pacman </b>*} Yes it’s retro but it makes the list because everyone who grew up in the 80s loves Pacman {*style:<b>9: Skreek Station I have no idea what this game is about, it looks interesting but more importantly it looks like one of those games that could change the board game genre. The simple games are the best and what can be simpler than a game of memory. {*style:<b>7: Marbles Another nice simple game, get the marble to the exit. Did you like this?

( part 1 of the list ) Remember this list includes concept and beta games. Essentially games I want but am unable to play because they are not publicly available. Kweekies feels like it’s been coming for a long time, it’s probably been one of the most hyped augmented reality games around. The website says coming this Fall which is any time now. HIT Labs is one of those names like Total Immersion or Metiaothat when they do stuff you tend to sit back and listen because you know its going to be good. {*style:<b>3: Spacecraft Racing </b>*} OK this one is not the most visual augmented reality application and may be a strange entry for number 3, but it makes me think of a cross between scalectrix and micro machines. {*style:<b>ARhrrrr Zombies The other candidate for first place is PIT Strategy. {*style:<b>PIT Strategy

Tres vídeos sobre la realidad aumentada en la educación Por empezar desde el principio, la realidad aumentada es una nueva tecnología que permite añadir contenido virtual 3D en un entorno físico, de forma interactiva y en tiempo real. A diferencia de lo que ocurre con la realidad virtual, la aumentada no sustituye a la realidad física, sino que sobreimprime datos informáticos sobre el mundo real, de modo que el usuario tiene la sensación de estar presente físicamente en el escenario que ve reflejado en su pantalla. Así se puede ver en el famoso vídeo Augmented Reality by Hitlab. Para ello, este tipo de tecnología suele requerir un ordenador y una webcam a la que se muestre la imagen física que se quiere enriquecer. En ocasiones, dependiendo de la aplicación, se emplean también ciertas tarjetas que se deben imprimir antes de empezar, o determinados dispositivos como móviles, cascos o gafas especiales con sistemas de GPS que permiten que la experiencia resulte más creíble. e-Learning with Augmented Reality Augmented Reality in the Classroom

3 Reasons Why Games Are The Killer App For Augmented Reality We all are great believers in the potential of Augmented Reality (AR). Within the next 10 years, we say, it will totally change the way we interact with the world. But what industry will be the first to bring AR to the masses? When you co-found a company that focuses on Augmented Reality games – and especially – when it secures an investment from a venture capital firm – you have some deeper explaining to do. Here are 3 key (business) reasons why games will be the first industry to spearhead augmented reality into the mainstream: Reason #1 Games are the killer app for emerging technologies Games Accelerate the Adoption of New Technologies by the Mainstream Games have a history of pushing the envelop of new technologies and bringing new inventions to the masses: computer graphics, memory, silicon, screens, 3D animation, interactive story telling, immersion…and the list goes on and on. Nolan Bushnell (the legendary founder of Atari) wrote back in 1996: Was the first PC a video game console?

18 vídeos de realidad aumentada aplicada al marketing y a la publicidad Todavía no sabemos si éste está siendo “el” año de la realidad aumentada. De lo que no cabe duda es de que cada vez son más las disciplinas que se apuntan a las ventajas que ofrece esta nueva tecnología. Hace poco hablábamos de la educación, o del periodismo. También lo han hecho la museografía, la arquitectura, o la tecnología de mapas. Mientras a algunas de estas disciplinas les basta de momento con “saber que se puede” otras parecen tener ya claro que parte del futuro irá por ahí. Éste es el caso de la publicidad, que ha querido aprovechar el potencial de la realidad aumentada para llamar la atención sobre todo tipo de productos. Los siguientes vídeos presentan algunas de las posibilidades que ya ofrece este nuevo concepto.

Data Life of the Future It's fun to imagine the future. Every few months, someone takes a stab with a concept video or a proof of concept prototype, providing a glimpse into human-computer interaction and data visualization in a decade or two. What will it really look like? Embedded Data If there's anything uniform across all the ideas, it's ubiquity. Most recently, Frog Design, came up with some of their own concepts (which accompanied a fine series of articles on Life in 2020 in Forbes). In this one a girl sees a jacket that she likes on someone else. Next, a man grabs a meal at his favorite fast food burger joint. Finally, in the the third, a married couple, Andrew Kendel and Jenny Daniels, sit down for a nice cup of coffee. I kid, I kid. Okay, so your first thought is probably that the world would be a very cluttered space with floating displays on top of everyone's head. We've seen this before. Microsoft has a boatload of concept videos for what they've envisioned for 2019. Fantasy World Looking Ahead
