Developers get ready..
Here is a video of the use of the OpenAPI that wikitude has available for every developer out there.
I can’t wait to see what the results are!
Akira Sasaki, one of our WIKITUDE API Beta Testers from Japan, has created a wonderful tutorial for the WIKITUDE API in Japanese. This tutorial is great resource to help get you quickly started with creating your own augmented reality applications. どうもありがとう。 Dōmo arigatō Akira-san! Gambatei everyone!

This new video came to my attention yesterday.
Tokyo-based developers Tonchidot have created a way that allows phone users to write information about objects viewed through a phone’s camera.
The Sekai camera calculates your position using GPS and images, then displays information graphically on top of your real-world view.
The company has released a demonstration of a prototype version being tested on an iPhone at a Paris science museum.
TAT has made a video of a demo for an application called “Augmented ID”, check it out.
Augmented ID is a TAT concept that visualizes the digital identities of people you meet in real live.
Wikitude (the makers of the first AR browser on a mobile in the world) have released a GEO-tagging website that helps developers to use there application.
Mobilizy GmbH introduces enhancements to its award winning WIKITUDE Mobile AR Platform, focusing on end users and opening up an application-programming interface (API) for developers. The enhanced WIKITUDE Mobile AR Platform consists of three components:
1. WIKITUDE World Browser – The original mobile AR browser and travel guide.
2. WIKITUDE.me – Wiki-tag your world (user generated geo-tagging portal)
3. WIKITUDE API – Build your own augmented reality application.
I wish them the best of luck!
Layar has opened a API key request page.
According to there press-release they have a new strategy.
If you are interested in developing a Layer for there browser than got to http://layer.com/API and signup for a key request.
It is unclear to me what a developer can do with this key. There a no guidelines that I know of. So lets just what until next month.
Here is a visible screen shot provided to us via a tweet from @Wikitude
Lets hope that they have there App ready real soon. The competition is high. Good luck guys.
Wikitude iPhone 3GS Mockup

This video of a new app called Nearest Tube has been posted on YouTube
The goal of the application for the iPhone 3GS is to find the nearest tube/underground in London.
As one could expect, these apps will be made by every developer arround. I am hoping that one of them will start with an openPlatform version on with a 3rd party can plot its data for free via an SDK/API.
