    imaGinyze AR iPhone app

    imaGinyze is a new app that brings augmented reality to your car via the iPhone.

    When mounted properly in the center of your dash, an iPhone with imaGinyze installed will detect the lane that you’re in, marking it with border lines that match up with the painted lines on the road, and filling the inside with a blue overlay.

    Once the app has established your lane, it can detect any vehicles that are in front of you within a given range. imaGinyze will also flash a “Vehicle Ahead” alert when you’re approaching a car from behind.

    Cars to the front are color-coded according to proximity – first green, next yellow as you approach, and then to red when you get close. While changing lanes, the lane detection imposes a purple overlay on the road display (this is “lane departure mode”) and alerts the driver to cars that might be in adjacent lanes.

    imaGinyze provides other information as well, such as the pitch of the road and the speed of the car.

    To use the app, your iPhone must be mounted at a height of about 1 to 1.5 meters in landscape mode. Some calibration might be required in order to ensure that the application functions properly.
