This is a Great New Technology
you may not have heard of. It's called Augmented reality. Augmented reality (AR)
is a term for a live direct or indirect view
of a physical real-world environment
whose elements are merged with, or augmented by virtual computer-generated imagery, creating a mixed reality.

When watching Football notice the yellow "first down" stripe running the width of
the field as well as a blue one that
delineates the line of scrimmage . That's
augmented reality. On day we will have a
flip down, see through visor in our cars.
And when viewing a overhead interstate
sign you will see a virtual arrow for your
direction according to GPS input.

No more accidentally staying to far
right and getting on 77 when you was
suppose to stay on 485.
And that's just the beginning of the wonderous things that can be
done with Augmented Reality.
