This could be the most advanced augmented reality game ever.
The pet is also very cute. If you’re a tamagochi fan you might want to try this one.

One more example of good comercial applications that can be done with Augmented Reality. Nissan Cube model website allow you to see in a very interactive way the car’s brochure. You can even change the car color!

We have been talking about Augmented Reality experiments for a while and maybe you asked already what kind of commercial values it will have.

Back in 2006 Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. launched the Eye of Judgement, an Eye Toy and card based game that uses Augmented Reality.

A few days ago I came across with the Cyber Figure ARis from Geisha Tokyo Entertainment (japanese only). A 3D “holographic” figure displayed on your computer screen that you can interact with in real life through the manipulation of a special positioning box, paddle, and web camera. The idea popularized in anime such as Hand Maid May has finally come to life! Have you ever wondered what it would be like to have your own virtual, interactive figure? You can buy it at the JBox website.

You can find more pictures at the Akibablog.

If you know more AR used in commercial applications, please drop us a line.

By using a webcam and flash, Boffswana took his Papervision character from the desktop to the desk.  A new and exciting way to interact with your flash content.  The possibilities are wide open.

You could try it by yourself at Boffswana website. Source code is available there too.
