"Dutch start-up Layar has been getting a lot of praise for their Augmented reality app lately. Unfortunately you had to own an Android phone to try it out.\r\n\r\nNow iPhone users can play around with augmented reality too.\r\n\r\nAvailable now in the Apple store for a dollar is Bionic Eye. It does a lot of what you have seen before and would hope for in an Augmented reality app.\r\n\r\nHere are some details about how the application works:\r\n\r\n- Vertical position: 360-degree view of all POI nearby your location, updated in real time as you walk in the streets.\r\n- Horizontal position: List of all nearest POI. When a POI is selected, a blue arrow (compass) is displayed to show the direction and the distance to that POI.\r\n- The application is fully compatible with Google Maps. It is possible to locate the nearest POI from your position on Google Map within the application.\r\n\r\nThere are versions for the US, UK, France and Tokyo with more countries and cities following soon. Here are the links to the App store where you can download the app:\r\n\r\nBionic Eye\r\nBionic Eye UK\r\nBionic Eye France\r\nBionic Eye Tokyo\r\n\r\nAnd a video demo to get you in the mood:\r\n\r\n"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
