See Through Walls

See Through Walls
Oct-24-09
This augmented reality system allows drivers to see through walls and around dangerous blind corners by using two cameras, one of which superimposes its image on the blinding wall to show what is behind it.

The system skews the image so that it looks as if it were being viewed from the position of the person using it.

The team want to build the system into vehicles, where onboard video processors would tune into a wireless feed from a roadside camera with a view of the hidden scene and project the hidden scene onto the windshield of the vehicle.

Don't think that's a great idea.. maybe in another setting. You better change peoples behavior. I think people will drive much faster through the corner and maybe the cam won't capture a running child or something.
