Augmented Reality Façade Shows Building’s Real-Time Deets and Tweets

The street - facing side of Tokyo ’s N Building is covered in QR codes that can be read by your headphone for up - to - particular date info — including Twitter updates from the building ’s habitant as they happen .

The project is a collaboration betweenQosmoandTeradadesign . Any nomadic machine that can read QR codes can access shop class information , but more in - deepness content like tweets ( located by GPS tagging ) , coupons , and reserve can be see through a consecrated iPhone app that ’s usable only by petition .

Now this is a use of goods and services of augmented reality I can really get behind : rather of clutter up up a building with billboards and sales event signs , they ’re hidden within an esthetically pleasing QR Code design . More of this ! Please ? [ Creative ApplicationsviaDesign Boom ]
