In my previous post last year I said that the Sekai camera appeared to be vapourware, largely because it appeared to be using natural feature recongition and tracking in scenarios where it did not look feasible.

This latest presentation clears it up a bit - the software isn’t using any image processing as far as I can see, it’s using the new iPhone’s digital compass to get orientation (along with GPS for position), something like GeoVector’s patent: “Pointing systems for addressing objects”.
