The ARea 13 seminar was organized in connection with MindTrek to explore augmented reality. AR means bringing virtual material into the physical world. The seminar demos illustrated how reality can supplemented by our human creations – for example by using the free Wikitudeapplication. I was particularly inspired by the Nomadi smartphone application which gives you a virtual tour of Tampere or helps you create and share your own travel route. Nomadi will automatically record the route and you can add points along the route, together with your own comments and pictures. Useful reality supplementing is still taking baby steps, but the experiments are creating the future. Big issues are usability and the quality of the content: ads, vague text and video on the cell phone screen do not provide a very addictive experience. But while we wait for smart glassesand a better user experience, we can examine augmented reality guidesand try out ways to use them.
