    Really rather clever

    Only bit of telly I watched today was the Dr Who Chrimbo Special as it was on just after we'd eaten so I was incapable of moving from the sofa to avoid it. Then I saw this on the BBC while fiddling with the iPad.

    BBC News - DIY Tardis looks bigger on inside with augmented reality


    A US-based Doctor Who fan has built a model of the Tardis designed to look bigger on its inside than its outside.

    Rather than circumvent the laws of physics Greg Kumparak has relied on augmented reality (AR).

    The actual interior of his wooden model features a zebra-striped fabric.

    But when a smartphone is held in front of it running an AR app, it appears to show a spacious interior modelled on the ninth and tenth Doctors' time machine.
    Even in the video it looks good. With a better CG model and a few tweaks it could be very impressive indeed.
