Bing-powered augmented reality app for iPhone
Following the Metro Paris Subway application, here is another Augmented Reality (AR) app for the iPhone 3Gs that’s welcomed into the App Store: RobotVision. The Bing-powered app has interesting features which seem on top of your iPhone’s camera viewer when you point at a restaurant or other places. It plus displays Tweets and Flickr photos published nearby wherever you are.

By using Bing Local search to glean location and business review goods, RobotVision gets access to some key Bing features like aggregated reviews from CitySearch, Judy’s Book and Yelp. Bing looks at the reviews of restaurants and tells you how they stack up in aggregate for a business’ food, ambience, service and more. (That’s a feature we’ve seen at BooRah, though that service doesn’t have access to Yelp reviews.)
Tim Sears, a Portland-based developer, expects to launch his AR browser next month.
