I'm sure most people are quite familiar with Virtual Reality. You put a headset, leave your senses of the current world behind, and and become completely engrossed in the new. This will become 'the thing' for the next 5 years or so. However, how many know about Augmented Reality (AR)?
AR is where you put on a transparent headset / glasses and see the world around you with info/holograms injected into your line-of-site. This is the technology that is going to tranform gaming (and life in general) in the future. I've been following this tech closely for the past few years with Microsoft Hololens, Google Magic, etc. We're still years out before the hardware catches up. However, I can't help but think about LS dungeons being setup in different viewing angles similar to how Minecraft was shown

Just a thought. I'd get into making an Ipad App etc, but maybe this would be the better route. Eye Candy for the current players and a way to drum up some players & advertisement on the game.
Best Wishes,
