I’ve lately been playing a lot with augmented reality on my Windows Phone and my Windows 8 Tablet. Both of them feature an accelerometer, compass and gyro as well as a front facing camera. This makes it possible to overlay various XAML elements on top of the camera feed, and have them move with the camera as you rotate and orient the device. As an example of this, you can try the AR view in my GuidePost app for Windows Phone (and while you’re at it, make sure you throw some good reviews in there ;-). The app uses the exact approach described here.
