Bay Area Rapid Transit, in partnership with San Francisco-based developer Junaio, has released an official augmented reality app that allows you to find BART stations and train schedules.
Augmented reality adds text or graphic overlays onto real objects as seen by a phone’s camera. Junaio provides information on point-of-interests (see picture above) and the ability to add 3D animations and share the edited images via social networking sites.
Junaio is free, but only available for the iPhone 3GS (not 3G or 2G) at the moment. A version for Android is underway.
In other news, Streetsblog talked with Google Engineer Scott Shawcroft about Google’s new Bike Map feature and their plans for enhancing it.
It gives bicycle directions that take into account the grade of a road, traffic volumes, bike lanes, bike trails, and recommended routes. The map de-emphasizes routes not friendly for cyclists.
The new mapping software includes an overlay of bicycle routes based on priority bicycle streets and paths in the 150 cities where Google is debuting the service.
