Countless sci-fi movies have portrayed it. Video games have recently embraced it. And pretty soon, it's going to have a much greater function for many of us. Augmented reality, as its commonly called, is the blending of fake and real worlds. With the advancement and the reach of technology, it's rapidly journeying from a distant land of "Wow, wouldn't that be cool" to an everyday place in our lives.
Here are a couple of videos, some older than others, that show how it's used and where it's headed. From testing out a new product to the filming of movies to education, there will no doubt be some very smart, practical utilizations of it. And of course, there will also be some ridiculously fun for fun-sake uses, too. Think virtual Beer Goggles or the Holy Crap, I'm on Acid! App.
