insideAR 2011: the metaio Augmented Reality Conference - from a Vision to a Roadmap
Description
Augmented Reality (AR) will fundamentally change the way how we access, understand, enjoy and share digital information.
The vision of being able to point a mobile device camera at anything in the real world and instantly receive contextual information is beginning to take shape as a roadmap to the future of AR. Enabling technologies and the vast growth of content will turn AR into a daily-used standard interface.
The 2011 insideAR event in Munich, September 26-27, will demonstrate that AR is here to stay.
The metaio Augmented Reality conference brings together First-Class speakers from innovative, global companies, with experts in fields like information technology, marketing, industry and design. The variety of keynotes covers topics such as:
