New software for Augmented Reality is showing off on N900

There is a very creative finnish startup company named: SVS Innovations Ltd who are developing innovative technologies. they've developed a 3D engine (Capsule 3d Engine) or a 3D viewer.

 
but this time they're trying to merge their 3D knowledge with augmented reality.
 
 
"Capsule 3d is a cross-platform, multi-purpose 3d engine designed to run both on desktop computers and embedded systems. It uses the latest 3d technologies to deliver the best quality and performance achievable on the underlying system. The engine supports a wide range of 3d visualization options and can be tailored for multiple purposes."
 
 
this engine is currently used in two products from SVSi and now for Augmented Reality, too. they're showing the AR off on a Nokia N900 :-)
 
here you can see a N900 with SVSi Model Search:

The key technical aspects of Capsule 3d-engine:
 
- Cross-platform support across desktop and embedded environments
- Photorealistic real-time 3d-model visualization
 
 
"Capsule 3d has been implemented using a high-performance cross-platform application toolkit Qt. Moreover, all 3d visualizations have been implemented using OpenGL to get device independent access to graphics acceleration hardware. With this approach, we have achieved high portability and maximum performance and made professional quality real-time 3d visualization available also for handheld devices."
 
and here is a Warcraft model in augmented reality using N900:

We have just released the first demo version of a 3d viewer for Nokia N900, powered by the Capsule 3d engine. You can install it from Maemo extras-testing using N900 application manager or by following link. Click here to install on N900
