(Spray'd-AR is pronounced like "radar")
------- "2070's here, and along with all the amazing advances in lifestyle technology, spraypaint's come a long way too. Spray'd-AR is the latest in Combined Augmented Tagging Technology developments. In addition to 50 color selections (including flourescent and Nano-Glo shades), Spray'd-AR has a programmable ARO cassette built into the top of the can. After programming in the text or image you want the ARO to display with your commlink, a single tap of the thumb trigger drops an ARO marker into the paint stream and fires it out of the can, where it becomes a nearly invisible part of your tag. As the paint flash-dries to the surface, it binds the ARO marker in place, making your tag not only a piece of art visible to the naked eye, but a multimedia masterpiece visible on the air for everyone to see. Any fool can spray up a building, but it takes attitude, talent, and the right technology to really make people take notice. Spray'd-AR: When you want to make a statement that gets heard." ------- Of course, while the marketing is aimed at street 'punks, the product has a lot of uses outside of tagging. The 'Star uses it during riot situations to mark suspects when they're doing mass arrests. Construction crews use them in buildings to mark where utilities run in the walls. Longshoremen use it to track where containers are on the docks (about the only upgrade they've made from the piece of chalk in use a century ago). And of course, graffiti has become a lot more colorful and obtrusive, now that it's been Augmented... "Kilroy was here" with an AR caricature of Kilroy himself thumbing his nose at you have started cropping up all over Seattle. Anyone else have ideas for uses for this stuff? Or maybe just something they'd spray on a wall? |
