In Between Virtual And Real- A Mobile Augmented Reality Demo

Posted on 14. Oct, 2009 by Antonella Stellacci in Mobile Augmented Reality

Augmented Reality  technologies spilled sci-fi fantasies into real life. Mobile Augmented Reality is pushing the envelope, by allowing virtual worlds to creep into the physical environment that surrounds us and “alter” it.

Hand from Above provides an artistic example of what is to come. Inspired by Land of the Giants and Goliath, it shows pedestrians at the mercy of a giant deity who in real-time tickles, stretches or removes them. Hands from Above is a joint project, between the Foundation for Art & Creative Technology, FACT, and Liverpool City Council for BBC Big Screen Liverpool and the Live Sites Network.
