Apologies if this has been posted already. Anyone seen this? Any thoughts? Looks promising, esp as it can be used for a huge variety of games.

There is an interview / demo here from Adam Savage's YouTube channel:

I for one look forward to more augmented reality in our daily lives

Wow! Looks very impressive! The potential for group gaming on that is incredible compared to the solo experience of VR at the moment!

This will be great at some point and will likely kill off much of war/boardgaming as we know it. It's going to be ropey at first tho.

Eventually it'll be tiny, light glasses and tiny cities filled with tanks, buildings and explosions will wage war infront of our eyes!

It sounds incredible and Adam Savage's YouTube channel is certainly reputable.
If only the Kickstarter was half the price then I'd take a punt (I don't play board games at present)

The Youtube link has some amazing related videos! Let's hope this kind of stuff is closer than we think.
