*It's a world o' new mashups and lash-ups out there.
*Here's a thought experiment: suppose you hold up a smartphone and say, "where's my shoe?" and a laser-pointer jumps out of it and focuses a hot red dot on your lost shoe. Just, you know, one pixel of mobile 3-D graphics. Is that best described as "Augmented Reality?" Clearly it would involve all the usual tools of augmented reality, like 3d calibration, data-base management, whatever Maybe we need a definitional category that involves humble little "augment apps" that don't inflict major interventions on "reality."
(((This just in, and look at 'em classing it up:)))
