*YDreams really jazzing up the ol' AR vernacular video here. Looking smooth and snazzy! And
check out that kid's playground installation, around 1:55. Not a fiducial
marker in sight.

*Interesting discussion here, too, on "real augmented reality." Personally, I'm thinking
the key here is not what you're augmenting, how fast it reacts or how big the
screens are, but the registration methods – the technical ways the augment
gets hooked or nailed into real 3D environments. That's the aspect of AR the user never
directly sees or experiences, so it's the secret of the magic trick.
*It's also the aspect that doesn't work at all well yet, so it's likely to be
the aspect of AR that knowledgeable people end up wringing their hands about.
