DishPointer Augmented Reality (iPhone Satellite Finder)

 
The next generation satellite finder: Point your iPhone anywhere towards the sky and all the satellite will appear on the live video screen - very surreal and freaky. Now you know which trees will block which satellite. Uses the accelerometer and the compass of the new iPhone 3GS. The compass has a bit of a lag, so when wheeling the phone right/left the satellite belt is shifted with a slight delay but up and down works in real time. To be released soon - also check out the other cool satellite iPhone apps on www.dishpointer.com

iPhoneの特性を生かした新たなARのデモ。木の高さを映像に重ねて表示させているようだ。応用することで実用的なサービスが生み出せそうだ。
