John Mayer Augmented Reality Video

John Mayer has created the 1st Augmented Reality Video.You print out a pattern which you can get Here .

You then go onto http://www.johnmayer.com/ar and match the pattern up to the pattern on the website to start the video

You can watch an example of this Here

Augmented Grafiti

A graffiti Artist Daim has created augmented reality graffiti calling it "Tagged in Motion "
Daim has created patterns and goggles that the Artist wears and can see the Graffiti been created as they move the patterns around in front of the video camera.They can also change the brushes,strokes and colours for the Graffiti

Augmented Reality

I been researching some Arduino Projects with Audmented Reality here are a list of some projects

Arduino Augmented Reality Head Sensor
http://hacknmod.com/hack/automatic-head-tracking-with-arduino/

This project using some 3d, head sensor and arduino board that the head sensor controls the movement of the player in the 3d game


Arduino Augmented modelling Tool
http://blog.makezine.com/archive/2009/03/augmented_reality_modelling_tool.html

This is a simple augmented reality that shapes and controlling the size and structure of the shape

Projects

After researching i found some interesting projects that are mainly arduino based

The first project is an electronic laser harp.Using lasers, ardiuino board and sensors a laser harp is created.
When you put your hand over a paticular laser and depending on a distance the sensor reads it and processes through the Arduino to make a harp like sound.

The second project is a twitter controlled popcorn maker.Basically when you twitter its processed through and arduino board and computer and activates a mechanicism that controls the popcorn maker and thus makes popcorn

The third project is a iphone controlling a Mazda car.Basically by creating an app for the iphone and putting electronic boards in the trunk of the car and using Bluetooth and GPS technology the iphone is able to start the car open doors and the boot

Finally the last project is Guitar Hero controlled by muscle sensors.The muscle sensors are strapped around a persons arm and useing software its able to detect which finger muscle is being used and hits a note in guitar hero

Idea

My first initial idea is that i have a sensor like a heartbeat sensor attached to someone who is starting to try get fit.Depending o the rate of the heartbeat it would trigger off something that would change the music or sound to help them get fit


my basic is concept is to help people get fit by enhancing the experience
