Following on from my post on Sekai Camera this week I went to the Games Developer Conference in San Francisco and got talking to NVidia and the Khronos Group about some of the emerging standards for graphics and Web 2.0. It is really exciting where this stuff is going.
The interesting thing for me is that combining this with other standards such as the BONDI OMTP initiative that allows access to a mobile devices assets and ambience in Web 2.0 applications will help make the whole Sekia Camera experience a (virtual sic) reality on mobile devices in general, rather than just a specialty application that runs on a couple of smartphones. And after all that is what needs to happen. Like any social networking platform this kind of location based social tagging application needs a critical mass of users to be useful and therefore get a user base who contribute to the critical mass of users who... You get the idea.
At the end of our meeting the NVidia chap said "Oh would you like to see demo."
What he showed me blew me away... and here is the same demo on YouTube. See what you think.
