Augmented Reality Ribbons

Last spring, James Alliban created a sensation with his AR business card.  This time he brings us a less practical, but more interesting video of AR ribbons.

Here I’ve combined 2 reoccurring themes that run throughout my work – Augmented Reality and ribbons. It is an evolution of the particle trails code from AR Particle Beam. Initially I wanted to create a flocking effect for the ribbons, but didn’t quite get that far and ended up cheating. This will be the next step.

Give me a cheap HMD and a way to control the ribbons and my kids could spend a few hours out in the yard creating huge 3D ribbon murals.
