These are a few weeks old but I couldn’t be bothered posting at the time. Now I’m trying to work through older tabs..

IBM’s ‘Seer’ Brings Augmented Reality to Wimbledon “Everything from tennis matches to dining and points of interest will be plotted using the combination of GPS, camera, compass. Users get a ‘heads up display’ to so they can see exactly what it is they are looking at. One added feature that other AR apps don’t use is tying in live data. For instance if you point your G1 towards a tennis court, users not only get basic information like the court number, but also details about the current and subsequent matches.”

TwittARound - augmented reality Twitter viewer on the iPhone “It shows live tweets around your loca­tion on the hori­zon. Because of video see-through effect you see where the tweet comes from and how far it is away.”
