Playing with Augmented Reality

20140318_131954

As I mentioned in class, I tried to play with the idea of augmented reality, or enhancing the physical world with virtual overlays and images. Here I depicted a technology that would allow you to adjust the view from the balcony of your home or apartment, or even hotel room. I imagine it would require some sort of motion sensing technology and would not have a physical interface but would rather be reminiscent of a hologram. Not only could you select what you want to look at but you could also augment other senses. For example, you could choose what sounds you want to hear. You could also choose the temperature in your area and the strength of the wind. Perhaps you could even choose what you smell at that point in time. This technology would completely erase any geographic boundaries that exist today because it would bring the location to you.
