Articulated Naturality Web

Articulated Naturality Web, or ANW, is what comes after augmented reality, the next level, the next phase if you will. There's a short video posted on engadget (and at the end of this blog post) that shows some of the features of ANW. For me, it's amazing because it fuses sensors, location, internet, image processing, and much more into one technology that gives meaning to the surroundings by means of your smartphone. Imagine sitting outside of an hotel, and looking at the available rooms, how they look inside, prices, and booking information. Blows my mind what we can achieve today with the amount of information and the technology available to us.
