Web Strategy by Jeremiah Owyang
Breakdown: Lego's "Digital Box", an Augmented Reality Kiosk
http://www.web-strategist.com/blog/2009/11/16/video-augmented-reality-at-lego-store-digital-box/
Metaio in Munich, Germany, developed the Digital Box.
They have their own SDK called The Unifeye
http://www.metaio.com/products/
This type of Alternate Reality is called Augmented Virtuality.

Blair MacIntyre, Associate Professor at Georgia Tech, is doing this
type of work, but mostly on handhelds (i.e., Zune).
Horst Bischof, Professor at Graz University of Technology, is doing
this type of real-time computer vision ... and then some!
They were both keynote speakers at last falls nVidia GPU Conference.
Important Trends in Visual Computing (General Session)

Check out the video for a kewl real-time real world tire and a
virtual rim with shading based on a real-time real world light
source!!!!
Blair was also involved in www.ismar09.org
SmartScene - one of the 2 engineers (way early on) ended up going to
work for Lego in Denmark.
He did VR research work for them at their Corporate Headquarters.
I don't know if that effort turned into a product or not.
He hasn't been with them for some time now.

As to who, I would say this would be their internal Software/R&D
group,
I was interested in joining that group a few years ago especially
when I
was still involved with Mulitgen and Smartscene, they had a really
cool
virtual Lego land demo in Smartscene. SmartScene was a great concept
which just arrived way to early for the technology especially at the
consumer level

Very cool. I'm wondering how they're doing the tracking (I don't see
any fiducials or anything).
I wondered that too. They are obviously recognizing the boxcover
image
somehow too, so they must be running against a database of potential
boxcover images and then using THAT at the fiducial rectangle.
Rather nice work. Gonna have to go visit my local Lego store and see
if THEY have it.
