Performer Marco Tempest has created a unique act in which classic card tricks are integrated with real-time AR; in this demonstration video, he shows both what’s happening normally and what’s brought to the performance by the computer.

It was a cool routine even whitout computer and whit that it was funny and impressive. Nice!!
Didn’t think I’d enjoy that, but I was wrong!
Very entertaining. A pleasure.
Awesome! Love it.
Weird that they can not synchronize its lips with what he says … considering the rest of this clip …
I just can’t get it inside, card tricks .. sorry. I did like the elevator though. I start to hear this weird accent and all that stuff and can not keep concentrated on the cards at all. Nah, I wont play them for money … he does not need to worry about that …
I must admire their hand work though .. it’s like ballet .. seems so effortless … it glides and slides …. flows …
So people with too elegant hand moves should alert you .. which is def. not me .. You can trust me … ehehehe ..
Ms. G – audio being out of sync is a common problem with youtube uploads. probably has nothing to do with the video itself.
i thought this was a great routine. neat incorporating the AR. kind of reminds me of this trick:

Shame you can’t use AR to project, say, numbers onto plain white balls and make it look like they’re real. Oh wait, you can! Very clever.
That was fabulous. I love augmented reality; there are so many possibilities in the technology. It’s wonderful to see it used so creatively in combination with sleight of hand.
