Tales of Things allows any real-life object to be
given a ‘digital memory’.
Attach a QR code to any physical object and
then associate online video, audio or text with it
that tells the ‘tale’.
Secondhand goods: selling an old keepsake that
had an interesting story tied to it. The buyer
would find the QR code and upon scanning it
with their phone or via webcam on the website
would be presented with your online story via the
Tales of Things website..

Swedish magazine T-Post, distributed as a T-shirt has released an issue where the t-shirt itself
becomes a "paper rock scissors" game to play against. A bit creepy, but also interesting as it
keeps on unveiling new ways of interacting with physical products.

Gigaputt - A real-world golf app for your iPhone
http://macapper.com/2010/05/17/gigaputt-review/
Video
Out of all the applications in the App Store, this one has to be amongst
one of the most creative! Gigaputt makes the world your personal golf
course. Object of the game is like any other golfing exhibition: Trying to
get the ball into the hole.
However, you aren’t competing at your local country club, that is,
unless you want to. You can make the Art Deco District of Miami Beach,
Chicago’s Magnificent Mile, Los Angeles’s Rodeo Drive, Times Square
in New York City, London’s Buckingham Palace, the Taj Mahal in India,
the Ginza district of Tokyo and you can even tee off on the Eiffel Tower
in Paris making the “designated place” for golfing for yourself or with a
bunch of people just about anywhere.

Dutch Authorities Use Interactive Billboards To Fight Street Violence
In an effort to encourage Dutch citizens to help combat increasing violence against public employees in the Netherlands,
authorities have constructed a psychological experiment that uses augmented reality and interactive billboards.
The billboard overlays real-time footage of passersby on top of pre-recorded video footage of harassment and violence
against a public worker. The combined footage puts passersby directly in the middle of public violence and, after grabbing
their attention, teaches them 4 simple ways to help fight violence and protect communities.

Medicine:
Augmented Reality Systems in Treating Real Phobias
Exposure therapy is one well known technique used to treat people's phobias, but the
knowledge that one will have to face the actual source of the fear may be too much for
someone to even consider starting. A team of Spanish scientists has now shown that using
special glasses to overlay virtual cockroaches onto one's field of view resulted in real anxiety
in six women who truly hate the pesky buggers.
