Bay Area Rapid Transit (CA) has partnered with the junaio augmented reality platform to create a BART channel. With augmented reality, users can create or see digital content, like text or graphics, on top of the real-world view through a mobile phone. As BART’s blog explains:
For example, a rider coming out of the Montgomery BART Station in San Francisco could see recommendations left by friends for restaurants or shops to try that are nearby that station. Or, simply by pointing the camera on her phone, a user could find the direction of the nearest BART station and get a list of estimated arrivals for the next several trains to her destination.
Junaio is currently free for the iPhone and in development for Android. Link to full story at SFBART’s blog.
