I really like this. It seems to me to be an early approximation of Neal Stephenson's A Young Lady's Illustrated Primer from The Diamond Age.

A commensurate companion, guide, and teacher. Sure this may only be a few activities but the responsiveness and seeming magic to it is fantastic.

I particularly like that you can set down a toy in front of the camera and it renders out a flat illustrated version of that toy.

Here's a free "magic" iPad app that I'm developing, which doesn't require any gadgets!

Hey Don!

I was about to post a link to your new gig when I spotted that you had beaten me to it!

Thanks -- here's a video demonstrating the new networked multi player version of Pantomime that we're showing at Augmented World Expo! Pantomiming with your friends in AR is a whole new ball game!
