I'm using iminib3d as the rendering engine, integrating it with marker tracking software from AR Toolworks.

Nice!
I think AR apps are going to explode sometime soon.
All the sensors you need are starting to become standard on phones (rotation sensors, cameras, GPS, front facing cameras, 3G).

I think we'll see alot of AR games appearing soon with people wandering around the streets shooting virtual aliens and hunting for virtual treasure.

Interesting concept. Good stuff. You should add a live counter on it of how many barrels have leaked out so far.
