    The new AR framework from Apple ARKit is awesome. It’s better then VR since it uses the video from your camera live so you can interact with your surroundings. Someone remade the A Ha video Take on Me. It shows the possibilities of AR really well.

    You won’t need snap chat to add dog ears to your pictures anymore.

    So you take video of your house so you can interact with it on your computer?

    Why not just use your house?

    Soon you’ll be able to put a tail where they cropped yours off and you can chase it for hours and hours.

    He can also superimpose testicles where his sad empty pouch now lays taught and fruitless.

    The Nest cameras are really slick and along these lines.

    They can be simple security system cameras, but...

    They do facial recognition so you know exactly who is where in the field of view. This is useful for home automation, motion and presence detection.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    We'll know this technology is for real when it's used for porn.
