Augmented Reality Demo

Gravity Jack In the Press

So the team worked up a pretty quick AR demo that has my car in it. The wonderful Dodge Challenger in all black of course.
It is a rough example, and pretty sweet in that they even did a quick physics engine to mimic the Toyota demo. You can drive Jack’s car on a piece of paper. YEAH! The better the camera the better this demo works.
