lm2labs, providers of computer vision-based interactivity solutions, demo their flashy AR business card (via ifolio)

I can only see this really making sense if receivers of the business card have a mobile viewer (ideally already installed). Then the AR content is quickly and easily accessible.

Otherwise, you need PC and Internet access to access the card’s extra content, at which point you have a computer with decent screen, mouse and keyboard at your disposal and the AR aspect becomes nothing more than a gimmick.
