One Step Closer to Augmented Reality

So I'm a little obsessed with the idea of walking down a street, wearing something like buddy here, , and seeing the landscape impregnated with media thanks to the emerging field of Augmented Reality. As such I become frothingly excitable when I see something like what Adobe is doing in Times Square. My advice is to NOT click on the link in that picture - instead, check out the Video over at Gizmodo. It's relatively simple to imagine how it is set up, and the dudes in the video claim it's lame, but look at them frolic like kids at a Harry Potter book release.

And what's that you say? Nothing "Augmented" about this? Well, it's half way there - and it's out now, so stuff it!
