Matt Mills: Image recognition that triggers augmented reality

[DarEmmaa]

10 years later this is still Phenomenal, I feel like I'm soo late to the Extended reality journey, well here I go

This will really change the way we consume media and make the world more interesting. Power and flexibility is already in our palms, we just need to innovate on. Great video, loved it. Thumbs up #TED #IdeasWorthSharing

That guy's got some balls, showing everything live and completely relying on his technology throughout his whole talk.. Well done!
Could have gone terribly wrong :D

[JazzEYR]

This is amazing! Its like the newspaper in Harry Potter! Literally turned fiction into actuality!

[filipo]

That's amazing! Downloading the app changed my life - it literally cured my cancer! I pointed this app on my face and it crashed at the beginning but then told me to go to the doctor! Now I'm living happily 10 years after the surgury.

This is something Ive worked on (AR) for a few years now.. Bonne job explaining.

I'm a primary school teacher and I used aurasma to make this a demo in February. I think this has real possibilities for augmenting, presenting and sharing children's work. My link is blocked, but just search for "Hayden teachernz" on YouTube.

i just finished ma first Augmented Reality application now thats how i read ma paper thanx alot for the awesome idea

Imagine if you applied this to text books. Calculators that teach you how to do the math rather than how to just the answer. Or how bout applying this to chemistry stuff. Imagine pointing it chemical equations and seeing whats happening...

Or how bout something like a tricorder where it analyzes what a material is based on it's spectrum and all that jazz...

The thing is that everyone can see your tag.

Like, a newspaper can tag the picture on the front page to the video of where the picture got taken.
So for example if the newspaper talks about "President to consider stepping off" & Shows a picture, You can use your phone over that picture to go straight to a video where the president is saying that he might step off.

This would be AMAZING for something like Google Glass, Since you wouldent even have to take out your phone. Checkout SixthSense :)

I have actually worked with a very similar project. That's why I am super-curious about how he did NOT mention how many images can be stored in the database before it starts to confuse things!! My algorithm had a limit at about 50 photo-style images @ 15 fps. I imagine theirs is better, but I am certain the limit is not above a few hundred!! This severely impairs the things it can be used for!

The amazed woman in the middle 6:40 LMAO!

[MayurNebula]

Yess. Its even showed on this TED.

[lednerg]

It's called Aurasma. Just look in the description below the video.

I have family living there, as well as in Malta. I love all the islands. I miss Gozo so much though :(

The guy at 3:23 looks like the villain in The Princess' Bride. INCONCEIVABLE!

[joseroquezada]

Revive is an app already available in iTunes and it does exactly this

[LeonidasGGG]

Theosibilities with this are endless!!! I want it!

[OvenBakedCookie]

It's like the Sixth Sense we saw in 2009, just using augmented reality instead.
Cool stuff though.

This talk made me think of C.W Leadbeater's Man Visible and Invisible.
