The data can be as simple as the names of the mountains visible from a high peak, or the names of the buildings visible on a city skyline. At a historical site, AR could superimpose images showing how buildings used to look. On a busy street, AR could help you choose a restaurant: wave your phone around and read the reviews that pop up. In essence, AR provides a way to blend the wealth of data available online with the physical world--or, as Dr Huopaniemi puts it, to build a bridge between the real and the virtual.

"It is unimaginable, had there been [personal] cameras in Auschwitz, that the world would have permitted the Holocaust to go forward," David Gergen, the CNN political analyst who worked in the Nixon, Ford, Reagan, and Clinton administrations, said in an interview. "We would have understood the face of evil."
Consider his point. The Nazis, no doubt, would have confiscated any image-taking device from their doomed prisoners. But what if a single "good German" -- just some grunt-level camp guard, say -- had shot secret video footage of an infant being sent to the crematoria? Or transmitted a photograph of the gas chambers across the Internet? Or webcasted pirated images of Josef Mengele's horrific "medical" experiments? Western Allied leaders, including President Roosevelt, might have found it politically impossible at that point to maintain their line that any effort to halt Nazi war crimes would only detract from the core aim of defeating Adolf Hitler's armies.
