It was fitting that the last day of the holiday wandering around Disney Downtown we ended up in the Lego Innovations store. For some reason I nearly missed seeing the Augmented Reality kiosk that lets you see whats inside your lego box.

\nI have seen this in videos before, but it was good to have a go with what is an ar Magic Mirror in a commercial environment.
\nCertain lego boxes are available near the kiosk and you just hold it up and away it goes. It animates the contents of the box.
\nThere were a few peoples who did not notice it either, once I started using it a queue formed \ud83d\ude42 Dad’s were busy video it and kids were busy going wow look at that.
\nMaybe these bodes well for the next gen tech they will start using in the theme parks as we saw lots of 3d (with glasses) of course and a location based service using a mobile for a treasure hunt.
\nEpcot did have this

\nAn energy sweeping game. It used what looked like a metal detector or round shuffle board stick to move virtual energy “pucks” that had to be croupier pushed to various stations. It was by Siemens, and was OK but a bit laggy. <\/p>\n
