Wargaming shows off World of Tanks spectating in augmented reality

Wargaming showed off World of Tanks AR Spectate at the TwitchCon event in San Jose, California. I saw a demo of the technology, which was cooked up by a special projects team in Wargaming’s Sydney, Minsk, and Austin studios.

The prototype lets you see replays of World of Tanks PC battles on the table in front of you. It’s a big step forward in mobile AR graphics, as it essentially blends together the real world with PC-quality graphics on the screen of an iPad. I saw a demo of the prototype at TwitchCon, where it was shown for the first time in the World of Tanks booth.
