The picture you see here is from a short film, “Augmented (hyper-) Reality: Domestic Robocop”. This is a short film directed by Keiichi Matsuda, Master's student at the Bartlett School of Architecture in the United Kingdom. I think it deserves top marks for its efforts to show us what could be the future.

I think I praised Augmented Reality on this blog before I even as the “Coolest Gadget Ever” at the CES 2009. I have since been many variations thereof, which were mainly for entertainment, with the exception of X-Ray Vision app driver. However, I have the dark side of the augmented reality view, and it hopefully never will be our future.

You can watch the video of him after the jump. You will notice that the viewer of logos, the gap must be linked to being bombarded with virtual posters on the wall. The user was then able to draw a window with a recipe of tea, and glasses, or whatever interface he was, knew exactly where the ingredients are combined.

My source compares this kitchen concept, something to Alice and Wonderland, but in all honesty, I'm on the dark world of the early nineties, cyberpunk, science fiction, like the works of William Gibson could be compared. Imagine bombarded with ads for companies that we are moving in our time. I think that we really want our programs augmented reality, what we take stock of the refrigerator? Honestly, I think, perhaps the final augmented reality: a dumbed-down society in which interfaces are constantly telling us what to do next.

Well, I do not want to conclude this article on a negative note and say that our humanity to be overcome by the will of our Technology. But I think there is a limit to how Augmented Reality should be used in the daily life of a person, and the protagonist of this short film is an overdose.

Some of you were able to post yesterday, which showed a short film with some advanced (and perhaps gone too far to remember) Augmented Reality. However, at any time in the short film we've seen this type of surface, was the main person.

Well, if he wanted his Augmented Reality, he would probably use the Wrap 920AR Vuzix glasses. Vuzix products before we have covered, and present their models are simply the LCDs in the eyes and headphones on the frame so that a user can their videos on the street as a very private experience to see.

The last time we cover Vuzix and augmented reality, he was at GDC 2009th Well they were until some new things at CES 2010th Hit the jump if you want to see a video of him.

The Wrap 920AR has a camera, the video from a record 752 x 480 resolution at 60 frames per second can, and combine it with a 1504 x 480 stereoscopic 3D image. You can see, look at the video that played a game with some types of glasses.

One notices that the man of the match has nothing to do, but just a couple of strange symbols. These are the codes of the augmented reality that we have seen before on other entertainment applications, and wrap 920AR has many uses, but we've already covered that with the short film. It was in March, but my source is priceless.
