The hype of Augmented Reality

Good overview of latest Augmented Reality examples on ReadWriteWeb.

The example i “like” most is the Augmented Identity one.

I am re-iterating the thinking we did before on this blog on how any on-line person is starting to have its own “information shadow” that is unique. No more need for identity “cards” or alike.

In that context, I recently met Dave Birch, Director at Consult Hyperion, who is 1) a very cool presenter on identity and digital money and 2) has two pretty interesting blogs on these subjects:

– His identity blog is here

– His money blog is here

Not much to add to the ReadWriteWeb article.

Have a deep dive in Gartner’s 2009 Hype Circle for Emerging Technologies.
