Wikitude brings augmented reality to the mobile web

May 19, 2012   IntoMobile.com

Wikitude, which is one of the Augmented Reality pioneers, wants to bring the technology to even more users. Their new solution, called “AR window,” enables any mobile webpage to include Augmented Reality content.

Wikitude’s CEO Martin Lechner said that this will allow users to “interact directly with the real world while browsing the web.”

We have a demo video to show you how that works in real life. Check it out and let us know what do you think

May 18, 2012   IntoMobile.com

The free Weather Channel iPhone and iPod touch app just got its first major redesign since launching in 2008. It’s gotten several feature and design improvements over the years, but the app is taking a leap forward in looks and function with today’s version 5.0 update.

Launching the app reveals the standard splash screen followed by the entirely new experience. The first thing you’ll probably notice is the current temperature because it’s gigantic. You can swipe left and right if you have more than one location saved to view the different weather conditions. The scenic background changes according to the weather outside — if it’s sunny outside, you’ll see a bright sky, and if it’s raining, you’ll see rain, etc. An expandable plus button will also display advanced details like wind, humidity, UV index, sunrise, sunset, and more.

The bottom toggle for current conditions, hourly forecast, 36-hour forecast, and
