Hi, my name is Jan and I work for a software company called metaio developing solutions based on augmented reality technology. augmentedblog is supposed to be a platform for people dealing with AR, VR, realtime 3D and so on. Bringing together ideas, solutions, people and knowledge to spread the word: augmented reality kicks ass!

I am looking for someone who can help to create an AR car application with effects including 3D car pops out; changing the car colour; and a parking animation. We can provide all 3D objects in Max. Are you or anyone you know may help me this?
Thanks!

Oi Edson,
muito obrigado!
The silhouette recognition as steering interface for your portfolio (for all of those not speaking portuguese) is a very nice user experience. Good work. And please keep me updated!
Adeus,

Hi Muqeem,
feel free to test augmented reality – as far as it concerns end user- and not industrial-scenarios – on our online demo portal: http://www.metaio.com/demo
Best regards,

Hi Muqeem
I’ve recently moved to Qatar and am thinking about organising a regular Tech Social evening over here, presenting and discussing new technologies. Would you be interested?
I can certainly give you a few pointers on AR!
My professional interests and likely themes for the evenings.

Hello Tiago,
I also think I might enjoy it. But my imagination alone is not enough. You forgot the link
So, send it in and I will publish it.

Hi Jan,
I am interested in – what AR development is happening with respect to IT infrastructure side.
I am interested in evolving AR based solution for IT infrastructure management/visualization etc. I want to come up with a proposal for how AR-based management suite can expand my company’s product portfolio. I am doing this on my own and my company is not asking me to do this.
Do you know anybody to whom this is an area of interest? First of all this is a fun stuff – I’ll look for a business case later if I can spot the right sweetspot.
Thanks/Saro

An AR world away from the gimmick route – check out brand-e.biz and Sally Ratcliffe’s take on AR with Zugara

Hey, I did not know, that we are on the gimmick route here. Actually we have a strong r&d and industrial heritage and it´s the background noise of this blog – I hope. Nevermind, everybody is invited to link-post in this AR world…

I added your site to the Augmented Reality Wiki (new):

Cheers!

Hey Duncan,
thanks for adding both my blog and company (metaio) to the new AR wiki. Keep it up!

Hi Jan, have you seen this one?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UIGAkVMre_o
Its an AR app for the new iPhone 3GS made by a brazilian bank to help their customers find all the contact points they have all around the country.
Hope you enjoy it! (it has subtitles in english)
BTW, congrats for the blog! We use it a lot to stay in touch with examples and apps from all around the world!

Hello Fabiano,
thank you very much for submitting. Although I still think, that pure GPS overlay is not competing with a Maps Mashup and my eyes, i liked the movie showing the GUI and user interaction. It´s getting better…

Hi Jan,
Here is something that we are working on here at VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland:

Hey Guys,
sorry for being so ignorant. I will take your project onto the articles page soon. I am preparing a little article about AR collaboration, discussing your approach and one we are researching on: tele-presence in maintenance scenarios, where we give service and advice within the viewfield of workers far apart.
October 14, 2009 at 11:46 am
hi
can you send me an email so i can get hold of you, thanks
October 15, 2009 at 12:17 pm
We are five students from the school Hyper Island in Karlskrona, Sweden. For the past two weeks we have been working on a project where we have created a product, the THISPLAY. We have read you blog and think this might interest you.
We are using augmented reality, but instead of having a 3D object we are working with a flat 2D image warped to a display surface.
There images and video on our website.
October 15, 2009 at 1:43 pm
Hey Veronica,
thank you very much for contributing. But I could not find too much on your given website. Did you want to direct me to the “Links” section? Would be glad to see more of the fresh stuff from universities.
Best regards,
Jan

Hi Jan,
I am currently doing a thesis on augmented reality 3.0 and would like to include your blog as part of my research
I hope you can help me in pushing this idea forward on the internet since we are blogging about a common interest =D

please take a look and let me know what you think
thank you very much

Hello,
I just wanted to point you toward an article we recently published on Augmented Reality. We tried to give a general overview of where we are and where it might be going in the future and is a great read, both for experts and for neophytes.
Here’s the link to the article: http://www.5deka.com/en/articles/55-technology/92-augmented-reality-where-are-we-and-where-is-it-going
Cheers!

Hi Olivier,
nice try, but from my perspective neither good research on the past (where is HitLab, Georgia Tech, Graz, etc.) and present (excuse me, but swirling layers on android is not the most complete AR application) , nor a very groundbreaking or even new outlook onto the future. I would suggest you go for iteration number 2 and submit it again
Nevertheless, thank you for getting in touch. All the best,
Jan

thanks

Hey Kheme,
please adress universities, which have chairs in this field. This blog has some useful information for students: http://www.augmentedenvironments.org/blair/

Hi Jan
i been playing about with unifeye design demo for a couple of days and really like it.
i come from a 3ds max background and would love to make some of my models into ar. after seeing the lego model on it i would like to give that a try with my own lego model.
http://diverse3d.com/leog%20crane.jpg
The demo version wont alow imports so what can be done to allow this? can it be brought? or is there a way i could test the software? i like to push unifeye design and see what it can do.
thanks for you time.
