“I know, you’re probably sick of AR this and AR that by now, and the technology is only in its infancy, but this?”
Today I bumped into this article on Grinding about a new development in the world of Augmented Reality. Buenos Aires-based software producer ThinkAnApp managed to develop a form of ink that is able to show 3D models in AR. Tattoos will never be the same. Their innovation could have substantial effects on the further scattering of Augmented Reality and new data flows in everyday life. Speculating further, will this technology be able to unleash new forms of mixed reality street art? And what will happen to architecture and its importance, when facades of buildings can be loaded with digital information more easily?
