Instantly transform yourself into a ravenous, brain-hungry zombie and join the ranks of the undead with the App Store's first true live-video Augmented Reality (AR+) face tracking app. Get it here.
This is more than just image manipulation… Blurring the line between reality and fantasy, ZombieMirror uses cutting-edge AR face recognition to track your movements and perform frightening undead transformations, all in real-time.
Configure your undead identity with maggot-infested wounds, dangling bloody eyeballs, skull-embedded axes and machetes, and much more. There's enough zombie combinations to last an undead lifetime.
Whether it's a zombie you or an undead friend, take photos of the action and share the horror on Facebook or via email. Save photos to your camera roll, or even assign them as friends' contact pictures for an undead fright every time they call!
WARNING: in the event of a zombie apocalypse and your inevitable degeneration into zombiehood, ZombieMirror will only serve to make you an even freakier zombie. Please seek urgent medical attention in the form of a shotgun blast to the face.

Bruno Uzzan, CEO and Co-Founder of Total Immersion, made this important announcement during his keynote presentation, at AR Immersion 2010 in Los Angeles this week.
The collaboration between Adobe and Total Immersion will foster optimization of Total Immersion’s D’Fusion software platform for developers and companies using the Adobe® Flash® Platform, of which there are many (over three million at last count).
Flash has an enormous user-base, with over 98% of internet-connected PCs worldwide having the Flash player installed. This alliance will considerably accelerate the market penetration of augmented reality applications, and will take Flash-based AR well beyond the confines of the current black and white marker-based systems.
Under the collaborative relationship, Total Immersion and Adobe will work together to help ensure the Flash Platform is enhanced for the development of professional AR experiences, providing seamless playback on any platform that supports the Adobe Flash Platform runtimes. Total Immersion also plans to leverage the new ‘molehill’ Flash Player and Adobe AIR 3D APIs when they are made available in future releases of the runtimes.

It almost doesn't need to be said that augmented reality is exploding right now, particularly in its mobile form. Oftentimes, however, its application at grand events, tradeshows and amusement parks bizarrely goes unmentioned. Here's some of the best:
