When I saw the title I was hoping for something else...Like the app adding cool effects to the fights or giving you information in real time about what was going on during the game.

I should remember this isn't a gaming channel.

I could listen to this guy talk about anything. He could narrate torturing me and ultimately murdering me and I'd be rapt.

this is like the most basic agumented reality application you could ever think of

That's like 30 mins of work for the actual image recognition program with Vuforia and Unity, I did hand recognition for a Mixed VR/AR program by taping 2 QR codes to my hands :D

You guys should do a video on code obfuscation and decompilation. I'm aware that compiling source code is a surjective process, and thus there's no one-to-one correspondence (bijective) function for decompiling binaries, but does there have to be to at least get an approximate source code? After all, isn't it theoretically possible to take any binary out there and convert it into its corresponding assembly and then step through its whole execution? If so, then with any program written in C (and assuming its dependencies are as well) shouldn't it also then be possible to take its binaries and decompile them to produce source code that would at least be approximate to the original in functionality?

Great speaker. Hope there is more to come!

AR still needs VR, vibration reduction.

[AzazeoAinamart]

Oh, I thought it is about something new for World of Tanks

[DarkShroom]

it's cool and admittedly the only thing I'll likely ever use augmented reality for, however at some point of course, you can loose the miniatures themselves!

[marios]

Hey, can you do a video on Google Project Tango?

[malonemalo]

1:11 "and the choice is yours."

I was disappointed to learn that it only worked with _that_ setup of miniatures, and that you couldn't (say) point it at one of those minis on some random table and learn about it. Maybe next decade?

this guy is Dutch right? btw nice stuff. thanks for sharing

[Daimo]

I was expecting programmable NFC chips.

[robinbroad]

and... the uptake of smart phones and tablets. the true goal would be scanning in minatures you have painted 123cad. adding a back ground story. scanning in table top scenery as well. and playing a game on a table top in real time RTS with you minatures. While your friends enemies see the same table top on their own device.

maybe he just has that accent from his parents

[devinhead]

Hey can you check out this new game? Someone created a game out of conways game of life. It's called "The game of Life and Death". Really interesting game and I thought of you when I saw it.

[TheAce]

they did better than this on the shitty preloaded gimmick software on the 3ds six years ago

[PointlessCamel]

This guy totally sounds like Tom Hardy
