What are the possible applications of Magic Leap’s augmented reality technology that adds CGI 3D objects into the real world?

What are the possible applications of Magic Leap’s augmented reality technology that adds CGI 3D objects into the real world?

What types of applications would you like to see for the Google AR Glasses?

I would like to see avatars move back and forth between virtual worlds and augmented reality.  I want voice-interactive NPC chatbots in augmented reality.  I would like to see a *platform* where anyone can launch their own embodied #Siri or #Watson; ideally, this would be some kind of pluggable middleware, where people could mix and match any cloud intelligence, or API, with a myriad of customizable 3D animations ala Second Life.

Examples of currently available research avatar systems include:

  • embots.dfki.de/EMBR
  • marc.limsi.fr
  • vhtoolkit.ict.usc.edu

See also my recent Quora answer to:

  • Are there any software tools or APIs that will allow you to create a 3D talking head that will generate correct lip movements when given a text stream?
