Ray-Ban 3D Augmented Reality

August 26th, 2010

Looks like those in the clothing industry are well attracted to the idea of Augmented Reality for their prospects.

Earlier I tried my hands on Tissot watches, and I did felt super awesome. 🙂

On the face however, like sunglasses, it’s not that appealing, all because it is already possible with your webcam and some software that does face recognition.
You can add moustache, mexican hat etc and have it recorded as well.

Ray-Ban had a version of 3D AR now, although they name it Virtual Mirror.

How about one site or software that could let you try wearing all those watches, shades, clothes, jeans, shoes without having multiple software or websites?

Tissot 3D Augmented Reality is super awesome

May 19th, 2010

Credit to Kai Shen for sharing this piece of awesome technology, Tissot Reality enabled me to try out multiple TISSOT watches in a short time.

Multiple reasons why it is so cool to try out Tissot in Augmented Reality:

  • TISSOT watches are expensive to even try out
  • they are always locked in glass cabinet?
  • this is so in-the-future!

Augmented Reality, made far-fetched things closer to you.

I made a video (with very limited resources, mind you) to try it out and demonstrate it.

Try it yourself by visiting Tissot Reality.

All you need to do is just
1. Download a PDF with the watch to be printed out.
2. Print the watch and cut it out, wear it.
3. Download the software and run it on a computer with webcam.
4. Flaunt it!

There of course could be some difference with the actual thing. I believe the colour is slightly off, but isn’t this better for a seller to approach their prospects rather than locking their expensive products in cabinet?

I printed the page straight-away in A4 and if you notice my watch is kinda small.
It could’ve been better to print just the watch in a single A4 paper.

Yeah, this piece of tear-away paper become a TISSOT watch.

Technology like this is very useful for humans to try out products in appearance before making a purchase.
The other thing like this that I was looking forward to was Microsoft Natal but Tissot just made it ahead of anybody else.

Call me whatever names you want, but I think this technology would be advantageous for the lingerie industry.
What say you? 🙂
And no, you won’t expect a video of me in Augmented Reality undies.
