One fascinating use of augmented reality is altering perception with image processing. In the past this has required the use of bulky computers and cameras but, the fifth-gen iPod nano has a compact video cam and powerful, live, video processing.
By viewing the world exclusively through the processed video, you can radically alter your own perception which, unlike merely shooting video, becomes an interactive experience - like being inside a video-game version or reality. Ideally, a pair of video glasses could be rigged to hold a 5G nano but, for now, I'm making do with stuff I have lying around. I used an old oscilloscope hood from a computer surplus store, but you could make something similar out of cardboard, if you want to try it yourself. Check out the video to see my version.Disclaimer: nano AR not recommended for driving, bicycling or rollerblading.Labels: Apple, AR, augmented reality, diy, ipod, nano
