No, the dragons in my life aren’t named Mike Arrington, although we did have a fun little debate over on Techcrunch the other day.
When I visited Munich I dropped by Metaio’s headquarters where they showed me their latest augmented reality prototype, which puts a virtual character onto a building. You can see it for yourself.
This was just a little fun in the snow, but later this week Metaio will put its augmented reality expertise to work on a major sporting event. More on that when the embargo ends.
Hope you enjoy this video from the snow of Munich. Damn it was cold!

Robert, you see, we need you here in europe, as well
When I was little, we had to imagine our imaginary friends. This is really just waiting for wearables, to make shared games with virtual participants.
A game facilitator could build comparable environments in multiple cities, and players could interact with each other (and fictional characters) as if all were in one location.
That’s cool! i hope I can use this for call of duty : black ops! That would be so amazing! And I am carrying a real gun and shot this augmented reality! LOL
Quite interesting AR technology work from good old europe!
Combining mobile with AR, and I see this as a great technology opportunity for digital signage and digital out-of-home advertising.
