What can I imagine now? I enter a hospital and can check the profile of the doctor I’m talking with through my mobile, etc.

The application is Layar and was made by Maarten Lens-FitzGerald and his team.

Augmented Reality browser, which displays real time digital information on top of reality (of) in the camera screen of the mobile phone. While looking through the phone’s camera lens, a user can see houses for sale, popular bars and shops, jobs, healthcare providers and ATMs. The first country to launch Layar is The Netherlands. Launching partners are local market leaders ING (bank), funda (realty website) Hyves (social network), Tempo-team (temp agency) and Zekur.nl (healthcare provider).
