Digital hologram of smart grid technology
General Electric has a great mini-site up showcasing their newest energy services and smarter power management tools.
But the most intriguing part of the site is the augmented reality applications that you can play with using your computer’s webcam.
What you do is you print out a piece of paper that the webcam “sees” and GE’s augmented reality program builds a virtual hologram.
Check out the demo video and then try the AR apps here

Amazing stuff.....!
What about the application? Does it support every resolution? and how can hologram be created? is it predefined?

just print the solar panel marker by clicking on the to-right link. Then select the augmented reality experience (wind turbine or solar energy). After, hold your printed marker so it faces your computer's webcam. For wind, blow onto your computer's microphone... enjoy!!
