Sur le blog nous parlons énormément de la réalité augmentée (jusqu’ici rien d’anormal :) )mais les terminaux qui font les sujets de nos billets sont toujours les même (HTC, iPhone…). Aujourd’hui nous allons voir la réalité augmentée sur un smartphone Samsung plus particulièrement l’Omnia II qui tourne sous windows mobile 6.5 avec l’application Ompass World Cities. Rien de révolutionnaire en terme de fonctionnalité avec la combinaison gagnante de la boussole numérique, caméra et GPS. Ici l’écran nous indique les villes les plus proche comprenant la distance avec le système d’indication sous forme de flèches qui a fait le succès de “Métro Paris“. Deux versions de cette application (Gratuite et Payante), la version “allégée” contient uniquement la direction des villes voisines alors que la version “complète” vous apportera des renseignements sur ces villes (Théâtre, magasins, métro…). Ce n’est pour le moment qu’une version bêta mais le mois prochain vraisemblablement du nouveau contenu fera son apparition. Pour finir je vous invite à regarder la vidéo ci-dessous.

Nexus One Will Take Augmented Reality To The Next Level
The details about the recently “dogfooded” smartphone from Google called the Nexus One have been surfacing more rapidly than a fart in the bathtub. For most the buzz centers around the Nexus One’s rumoured untethered bachelor lifestyle or potential $99 price, but I found the more interesting nugget of information to be the Snapdragon processor from Qualcomm.
The Snapdragon processor has 1GHz processor and onboard graphics and claims to produce 22 million triangles per second. Compare this to the iPhone which only produces 7 million triangles per second (see this comparison chart for more details.) Now we’re still way outside the realms of the desktop processors which light up screens at 60 million to 300 million triangles per second, but we’ve passed the old GameCube which ran at 12 million triangles per second
The Nexus One will also sport a 5 Megapixel flash camera with 720p HD recording possible. With the Android OS2.1 open API access to video, augmented reality will look better on the Nexus One than the sorry old iPhone and do so without all the annoying limitations from the Apple app store.
While the Nexus One is still a smartphone and limited by its small screen (aka “Magic Lens”); its better graphics, higher processing speeds, open OS and improved camera will make augmented reality work and look better. The real breakthroughs will come with a cheap HMD, but until then I think the Nexus One with the Snapdragon processor will help augmented reality take another step toward wide usage.
