Nearest Subway Augmented Reality App for iPhone 3GS

submitted by Farhad2000

1 decade 5 years 4 months 1 week ago

acrossair, the makers of Nearest Tube iPhone app bring you the New York Nearest Subway one of the first augmented reality apps to go live in the iPhone AppStore. Forget boring 2D maps! Try this amazing new application that tells New Yorkers where their nearest subway station.

When you load the app, holding it flat, all lines of New York subway are displayed in arrows. By tilting the phone upwards, you will see the nearest stations: what direction they are in relation to your location, how many miles away they are and what lines they are on. If you continue to tilt the phone upwards, you will see stations further away, as stacked icons. Only available to Apple iPhone 3GS users.

Awesome! But AR belongs in glasses/implants. the 'iphone as looking glass' option is a baby step in the right direction.

Wait, augmented reality breast implants? Where can my wife sign up?
