> How do you take a photo of Augmented Reality?
You shoot through the glasses? At CastAR we shot all our demo through real hardware and I believe Tilt5 is too.

Those bigger cameras used by the press worked fine too even without a jig.

And then rip off other people's work without giving them any credit in your patents.

And then sexually harass the very women you employed to solve the endemic "pink/blue problem" and fix the nepotistic sexist bro culture, and rebuff and ignore her advice, and pay her off to keep their mouth shut when she sues you for sexual harassment.

And then give the entire AR industry a bad name by not delivering on your outrageously hyped promises, while burning through BILLIONS of dollars and fucking over your foolishly gullible investors.
You could try it by using a DSLR on a stand (stack of books?) hold up the glasses (by hand or whatever), try draping a black cloth over camera and glasses (no elastic or anything, just the cloth — you’re trying to be realistic). See how it looks, and if it looks realistic.
Having seen pictures and then experiencing AR myself (just HoloLens) I feel like honest photoshopping is probably the best we can do. But then that doesn't take into account the actual two-eye experience (maybe even more important in a monocular display), and the effect of movement.
I was doing a little user study recently where I was using HoloLens and the researcher was watching the streaming view. I felt like I had to keep explaining what I was really seeing because the stream felt so inaccurate.
How can you use an image to show the displayed image intersecting or displaying behind a real object? A stereoscopic capture might help, but seeing how things react to head movement is a big part of visual understanding. A short stereoscopic video might give some of that, and yet there is still a difference between watching that video and being the person that moves their head to interrogate the environment.
