[kinggilgamesh76]

[robbiefun1]

[AfriKonArtist]

[Forgott3n36]

[QwAdr0x256]

[TerrorBlack]

[sygnus5]

Replace "phone" with "eyeglasses with screens" and you have the future!

epic

[donut2790]

Pretty cool but I'm gonna go ahead and say that's the most dangerous thing I've seen in awhile.

[mariamindy]

@donut2790 - well... not really, the app is not dangerous, the hand that's HOLDING the android + making a video + driving is the most dangeous thing I've ever seen!!!

Either way, it's really cool.

[damjampad9]

that looks illegal holding the camera like that

[dofty]

@damjampad9 Why? Is it illegal to hold a camera-looking device on the road?

[damjampad9]

@dofty i dont know if its illegal to hold a phone and drive but it can just be placed on a holder like gps units. cool vid btw.

[spider2465]

@damjampad9 They are in the passengers seat, so it's all good :)

[tantragna]

@damjampad9 afaik he is not driving the car!

[jamymans1996]

layer is the best

[skizza83]

android is absolutley fantastic!

[majdijr]

just voted for this on ADC2, wish the developers the best of luck

[ferroxian]

Indeed:

I would ask everyone to engage and answer "pettson3816 " rather that demote or condemn his/her comments. Why WOULD someone want this technology, in a moving car, seeking a single location with due intent on arriving, as opposed to a well made GPS unit? What are the cost and coverage/cost factors?

Is "augmented reality" just extraordinary corporate advertising? Meddling? Helpful guidance extraordinaire?

[laplasz]

Consider that most GPS uses bulit in maps - with no updating capabilities. Or if you using online maps - you sholud use a 3G connection.

But with augmented reality you dont need maps!!!

Just directions - witch is much less data. And you can get these updated directions from a server, not just offline.

[trevsweb]

great idea though the arrow system seams a little confusing. especially on straight roads.

[pettson3816]

Why would you even want to use if you have an ordinary gps?

[pkny81]

Because some people just aren't good with maps. This MAR application does not seem to show information (directions) based on recognising shapes on the screen but rather it seems to show information based on GPS location and direction.
