During CommunicAsia 2010, Rednano booth caught my attention. It is quite a small booth and with a TV screen that says Liveview Directory Search Service. There wasn’t much else. However, when I talked to them, I realized that this may be the next big thing in Singapore, especially, with Mapking and Augmented Reality incorporated.<\/p>\n

Recently, there has not been much news on Mapking in Singapore. My last conversation with EastGear during the PC show 2010 is that they are focusing on other products and not on Mapking (this is what I heard from EastGear people which does not represent Mapking in any way).<\/p>\n

At the Rednano booth, I was quite surprised to see that they are promoting an app on Android. It is NOT just a search engine but much more. They are called DARE (means Digital Augmented Reality Experience).<\/p>\n

It is like Wikitude Drive<\/a> or part of Google Maps Navigation<\/a>. The direction will be virtually displayed on the screen through your phone camera. I coined a word from Wikitude Drive, “Never take your eyes off the road again”.<\/p>\n

There will be no maps to update. The information is pushed to your phone and can be updated regularly.<\/p>\n

From my understanding with Rednano, they are working with Mapking on the maps information and Rednano has a team to update the POI (Point of Interest) . So, what is in for consumers.<\/p>\n

In my opinion,<\/p>\n
