Hello, I am Robert G. Male. Welcome to TechStop™. Here you will find links that I think are of interest.

Blaise Aguera y Arcas demos augmented-reality maps (video 8:14)
  • This was back in 2010 and may be more advanced yet. It's one thing to have maps that turn into photo-realistic 3D models and then actual photos. It's a next step to fold video into it. I'm imagining scenarios where multiple video streams are available in real-time in a location that is framed by one of these virtual environments. Take it a step further and fold in details not readily available such as building, water, and wiring schematics, security cameras and sensors where the public are not around, etc., and you have real power. He only barely mentioned it, but there was also the option of historical photos. Real-time is nice, but archival video would be helpful also. For the public much of this could be used to see what you just missed, if looking the wrong way, being too far away or having not arrived there yet. Keeping a record of it for later would be essential.
