Canon Launching Its MREAL Headset March 1st, Will Allow Designers To Prototype Using Augmented Reality

20130221_hiRes_interactivedemoCanon announced the launch of its MREAL system for "mixed reality" today, which includes a head-mounted display that allows wearers to combine virtual objects with the real world in 3D, which essentially sounds like a product designer's dream.
