CastAR is an Augmented Reality head-mounted display developed by Technical Illusions. Similar to other AR Devices, castAR projects 3D renderings onto physical surfaces. To create 3D imageries on top of physical objects, the glasses-like device uses 2 micro-projectors to cast stereoscopic images onto retro-reflective surfaces. A built-in camera tracks the movements and positions of your head. Additionally, an AR/VR clip-on can be placed onto the glasses to create an immersive VR experience. CastAR's Kickstarter Campaign began on October 14, 2013 and raised 1,052,110 dollars out of its initial goal of 400,000 dollars.
