The Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Information Technology FIT just presented an Augmented Reality system for use under water. A diver’s mask with a special display lets the diver see his or her real submarine surroundings overlaid with computer-generated virtual scenes.

In the pilot application, an AR game, the player sees a coral reef with shoals, mussels and weeds, instead of a plain indoor pool. Applications for professional divers are being investigated.
