"The world's first custom motorcycle built with augmented reality"

Actually, I like it. Always did like the LS650 lump.

meh. another design project from someone who clearly doesnt actually ride a motorbike. utterly meaningless waste of effort destined to end up in a glass box in the sort of shop that charges 500 quid for some faded levi's with holes in the knees.

Aye Matt,

Not really!  :(

This appears to be another way of saying that you are looking at a set of the "King's new clothes"!

"What is augmented reality in simple words?
“Augmented reality (AR) is the real-time use of information in the form of text, graphics, audio, and other virtual enhancements integrated with real-world objects.” – Gartner's IT Glossary. “Augmented reality is the rendering of digital images or data onto real-world objects.” "

All a bit LaLa land to me!  ;)  "Go and twirl some spanners", would be my repost.  ;)

Good health on a sh!te weather day, Bill
