Intel’s Anthony Gallo shows off three augmented reality demos on an Intel Core i5 processor. For the first demo, he starts the web cam on the computer and then holds up the December issue of Esquire magazine. Robert Downey Jr. pops onto the screen. The 3-D image on the screen is changes based on the angle that the magazine is held relative to the webcam. There are four different animations that can be unlocked by the magazine. We reported about this augmented reality issue of Esquire back on October 29. For the second demo, he uses a new Avatar toy from Mattel to unlock two different animations. For the final demo, he takes a picture of a motherboard and manipulates it in 3-D on the screen.
