I weep that I went through my teenage years with nothing remotely like this technological marvel:
The character chosen to show off this augmented reality girlfriend tech is [Hatsune Miku], a voice synthesizer personified as a doll-eyed anime avatar. [Miku] is an immensely popular character in Japan, with thousands of people going to her concerts, so choosing her for this augmented reality girlfriend project was an obvious choice.
The build details for this hack are a little sparse, confounded by the horrible Google Translate results of the blog linked in the YouTube description. From what we can gather from the video and this twitter account, the build is based on an ASUS Xtion Kinect clone and a nice pair of video goggles.
Of course, from the way this guy treats Miku, it's no wonder that he lacks a human girlfriend.

Somewhat. Krieger's virtual girlfriend is composed in an anime style, but she's a hologram.

Similar OpenSource Project without KinectFusion, but the possibility to create every game content you want in the Blender Game Engine >> http://youtu.be/fezJw3iYCpc
