Augmented reality on N900
After a number of tantalising videos, the first "augmented reality" application for Maemo is now downloadable. By printing some barcodes, the camera on the N900 is used to superimpose virtual objects on to reality, taking into account camera angles; light sources and so on. Pavel Rojtberg said, finally I reached a stage where I could upload my small augmented reality app to extras-devel, so all those who asked for it can now play with it. But be aware that it is in extras-devel for a reason. In case you are wondering what I am writing about, here is a video of the demo. As he says, it's in Extras-devel, so care should be taken not to update other applications when enabling the CPU.
