Cyber-Maid Augmented Reality

Geisha Tokyo Entertainment Inc. announced a new entertainment software using argmented reality technology named “Dennoh Figure ARis“(Cyber Figure Alice) will be on sale in this autumn 2008.

The package will come with two cyber-cubes and two cyber-sticks. You set up your webcam, then by putting the cyber-cube on your desk, a cyber-maid will be displayed on top of the cube on your PC screen.

By maneuvering cyber-stick around the cube, you can peep, touch and let her change cloth virtually. This picture only shows the concept, in reality the cyber-maid should be seen only on the PC.

For me, this product looks on the same track of the game Eye of Judgement, demo-ed and sold by Sony for Playstation3, on where players can see CG monsters over their real cards thourgh the web cam, though Sony’s one is less creepy :-)
