Augmented Reality on a Cellphone
Gizmodo is reporting that a, "Viennese computer scientist Daniel Wagner has figured out a way to show a virtual character on an i-mate SP5 cellphone, and when you move around with the cellphone, it appears that you're floating around this virtual character in 3D. Other people with cellphones can also see this character from their points of view."

See a cool video of it, here.

It's pretty cool stuff, but I think I'm more interested in seeing the new HTC Hermes than an "augmented reality character" floating around in my current mobile device.

Uh, I don't get it. Pretty cool, it isn't there and stuff. But what is the use of this? I guess I don't get it, other than as something that would be in a SciFi film or something.
