DIY Augmented Reality Heads-Up Display

mkwan writes "A PhD student in Melbourne, Australia, has built an augmented reality head-up display using a baseball cap, an Android smartphone, and off-the-shelf optics. It won't win any awards for style or practicality, but it's a fun way to use Wikitude. All we need now is a Terminator-vision smartphone app." Not nearly as modern, but vaguely related: the Private Eye P4.

    While his project is cute, there are already commercial solutions that are pretty much the same thing.

    P.S. I am not responsible if you decide to AR while biking on real roads...
