Augmented Reality Browsers

An anonymous reader writes: If you have ever used one of the popular augmented reality browsers like Layar or Wikitude, have you ever wondered how they compare head to head? If not have you ever wondered if you can use your phone to find a good restaurant or point out popular sights around the world?

This is a two part head to head where the blogger has tested several mobile augmented reality browsers and their ability to find places to eat and function as a tourist guide by identifying tourist attractions in London.

This is the first review I have seen where all the browsers have been compared together, what's interesting is all the browsers use different data sources so either miss popular location so give the wrong location.

Interesting read and a good analysis
