Tokyo-based developers Tonchidot have created a way that allows phone users to write information about objects viewed through a phone's camera.
The Sekai camera calculates your position using GPS and images, then displays information graphically on top of your real-world view.
The company has released a demonstration of a prototype version being tested on an iPhone at a Paris science museum.
Augmented reality systems such as this are in their early days but are expected to become increasingly common installations on smartphones.
