That trio of movies that I think of first when it comes to projections and holograms - "Star Wars", "Minority Report" and "Iron Man." My opinion about augmented reality - it's cool and let the two. Between me and the helmet Tony Stark intimacy is about the same as between Peter I and the Moon, but his path to the AR in real life I have tried - on Opel Corsa, in bad weather, far beyond the MKAD, with an application Hudway. Maybe not the first, but I'll write how it was.
The principle of the application is simple enough that it is unclear how this nobody did before. In general, any car owner (
read: the one who has the iPhone and Machine ) gets the opportunity to use the Head-Up Display-technology without extra costs.
It almost space - picture of the road, with all its twists and turns, is projected in real time on the windshield. The idea is to make driving in poor visibility safer - the picture of the road right in front of the driver and the person in a way that is perceived very easily. Well, with the focus of the projection onto the road and back is no more difficult than with the speedometer - and I look at it very often. Yes, for the top segment of car is not new - BMW, Audi and several other automakers are offering Head-Up Display as embedded option. But for all other HUD-software that does not require a separate iron - this is a very cool idea.
This is a real video work:
