Layar’s augmented reality comes to Google Glass

This brings the possibility of watching movie trailers just by looking at posters

Augmented reality is undoubtedly fun sometimes but it is not always that we want to lift the phone all the way up to our ears. For some, this might prove to be a tiring act and it looks like thay Layar certainly agrees to this and feel the pain too. With this realisation, the outfit has brought the AR secret sauce to Google Glass now.

After the installation of the APK, saying “OK Glass, scan this” will lead to the head-mounted wearable looking for additional content for your right eye. We are well aware of the print expertise of the company, and keeping that in mind, most of this is going to feature magazine content which will feature some extra value material. Along with this, maps and real estate listings can also be viewed with the help of this. This is taking laziness to a newer level and what’s more surprising is that you could also watch movie trailers just by staring at a poster unless you are not bothered by being called a weirdo by your fellow cinema goers.
