This post is in response to a post that was made today at Muve Forward titled, "Virtual to Augmented to Holographic Reality." In that post Chris Topher shares with us the following video he found on YouTube regarding augmented reality:

So, to follow with Chris' post, here are some things I have dug up in the past 6 months that blew me away along the same lines:
