[ros-users] [Discourse.ros.org] [Next Generation ROS] AR Rviz and/or Move it for ROS 2

[Jeremy Adams]

Given Augmented Reality is increasing in popularity and available on many platforms. Additionally, AR provides 3D contextual data which would be very useful in visualizing data such as point clouds and markers. Is there any interest in converting some visualization tools such as RVIZ and MoveIt to an AR platform? With multiplatform support in ROS 2, it would likely easier than ROS 1. 

Point clouds anchored to real world objects visualize from an AR device could be infinitely more useful. Augmented motion plans displayed on real world objects could help identify collisions with items not sensed or modeled. I'm sure there are many more possible use cases. 

Thoughts?
