AR marketing brings adverts to life Point mobile to part of advert and watch what happens… Bruce Scharlau, University of Aberdeen, 2013
There are different levels of Augmented Reality • QR codes & barcodes to link to physical items • Marker based codes – point camera at marker and watch the magic • Markerless apps such as navigation maps and compasses • Augmented vision to add layers to what you see http://www.slideshare.net/aky25/augmented-reality-presentation-3119696 Bruce Scharlau, University of Aberdeen, 2013
You can pull the AR or push it to the handset http://www.slideshare.net/aky25/augmented-reality-presentation-3119696 Bruce Scharlau, University of Aberdeen, 2013
