Augmented history
The Arc de Triomphe honours those who fought and died for France in the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars. I’m sure they’d be thrilled with this.
Before people get too carried away with AR use of public monuments, note that icons like the Sydney Opera House require permission in advance if the image dominantly features the building.

Burn that ad
This is a fun piece of augmented reality. The Burger King app lets you burn competitors’ ads in return for a free whopper. Fits their ‘flame-grilled’ point of difference.
Magic Leap
What’s impressive in this video is the line at the bottom of the screen.
Mixed reality is getting closer. Which is great, because augmented reality and virtual reality are very 2009.
The Magic Leap technology projects a digital light field into your eyes which magically disintermediates screens and the TV industry.
It’s a Florida startup that has raised $1.4B, you read that correctly, from investors that include Google, Alibaba, and the 40 thieves.
See you in my eyeballs.
