Augmented Reality

Sorry anonymous if your intellectual growth is being stunted! (see previous post comments)
Just for you, search on “Augmented Reality” (AR) is a field of computer research which deals with the combination of real world and computer generated data. What a different world our grandchildren will live in.

Dave will have fun with this.
Already you can point your camera at a simple symbol in the newspaper and 3D + info pops up on the camera screen. Photos show what your eyes see and what your camera sees. Someday I could point my phone camera at a building or at Dave and it will recognise and give me pertinent info on screen.
The possibilities are endless. Go for it anonymous.

(So that is how they do the yellow first down line on TV football.)

Sling box

David, do you of anyone using a Sling box unit to connect their home base Cable or Dish television network (Up North presumably) to their computer in CV? Hooking the PC to your CV television set allows one to watch any program available on their North TV set. That's according to the advertisement. Does it really work? Thank you. Andre
