You all must check this out...

The new "Star Trek" flick is the first major film release to use augmented reality to promote the release of the film.

And this is the cool part...

Paramount Pictures International has created ‘Experience The Enterprise’; a groundbreaking augmented reality (AR) application placing a 3D interactive version of the Starship Enterprise in the palm of your hand.

IN THE PALM OF YOUR HAND!

If you have a webcam you can take a tour of the Enterprise using the kind of futuristic technology that sits at the heart of perhaps the most popular science-fiction franchise of all time. Once underway, you are given a ‘cadet holo-simulation’ by Starfleet. The experience gives visitors a five minute tour of the Enterprise, including testing the ship’s weapons systems, impulse engines and warp drive.

Check out the video or visit experience-the-enterprise.com
