Kickstarter

The good news: My friends at the Vanderbilt Republic Foundation are, at this writing, 96 percent of the way to goal of raising $50,000 for their planned project to document the lives of Cambodia’s surviving master artists. They’re amazingly close.

The exciting news: There’s only one day left. Donate now and you might be the one to put them over the top.

(And, for one last bit of background information on the project and the people behind it, check out this excellent interview with photographer George Del Barrio on the Kickstarter Blog. So good.)

Augmented Reality On the iPhone: What the Future
May Hold

post from TheAppleBlog on 02 October 2009 04:00:00 PM. © TheAppleBlog

Recently the iPhone has become a bit of a playground for augmented reality apps. These apps have been more of a cool thing to show off to your friends than anything all that useful, but Colin Gibbs believe they have a lot of promise (subscription required).

We believe AR will eventually be ubiquitous, perhaps even to the point where users sometimes don?t even consider the differences between the real world and the virtual world. And we believe mobile phones will be the gateway medium for AR, which will eventually find audiences both massive (phones and other connected consumer devices) and tiny (niche applications in health care and enterprise, for example).
