I came across this article today. Apparently, there is a new app for iPhone that allows for Augmented Reality (AR). By shaking the phone, you can activate the hidden app. When activated, the Monocle app allows you to use the camera to see new things. For instance, pan a downtown street and you will see information and reviews about a restaurant from Yelp.com. It's a bit like the view from the Terminator videoscreen. You get extra, augmented information about your surroundings.
The article link is here:

PS. Hey, where's the AR app for my Nokia N95? ;-)
Stay inspired!
Cheers,
