SAP has talked about a proof of concept about AR a while back.
http://www.vimeo.com/8569187The application is called Augmented Explorer [Prototype].
The prototype was developed using the Layar application.
But from the new screenshots
I can’t find a Layar reference anymore. [link]
It seems to be working on iPad/iPhone, hope to see more of it soon.
Acrossair the publisher of multiple AR apps has included support for the iPhone 4 and it Gyroscope sensor.
The former implementation of this sensor was done by software algorithms computed with input by other sensors.
ReadWriteWeb has made a video for comparison, take a look and be amazed by the result.
ING netherlands has created a desktop AR experience in preperation of SAIL Amsterdam.
Telegraaf.nl readers get a sneak preview of tomorrow’s ING Pirate Island. The treasure map of the ING Pirate Island is published that morning in the Telegraaf, people can use it to let Pirate Island come to life. Hold the map for the webcam on your computer and take a visit to the island http://www.ing.nl/pirateneiland3d comes to life in 3D. A special experience to have stuck in the mood for a ‘real’ visit to the ING Pirate Island during SAIL 2010 in Amsterdam. The treasure map is also downloadable from Friday, July 23 at the special site of SAIL-ING.
The terminal caddy? DoCoMo’s intuition search experience!
A white-label version of the Layar application has been spotted in the wild named UAR.
As in Urban Augmented Reality .
It is an application for the Dutch Architectural institute and shows information about buildings and building to be build.
http://www.nai.nl/uar is the Dutch language site.
Apple iTunes download.
[update]
It seems that this application is not a real white-label service but instead uses a “launcher” application that uses links to preload URLs into Layar.
Smart move by the UAR team, and therefore not something that Layar has made available.
Wikitude Drive AR application for Android is finally available in the Market place. Check the video below.
Ben & Jerry’s has launched a Augmented Reality view called Moo Vision in there existing iPhone application using the Unifeye Mobile SDK for the AR. The current packaging is used as a marker to let it come to live.

It is build using the UNIFEYE MOBILE 2.1 SDK from Unifeye Mobile.
This is by far the best news I have write n all year.
