Thank you for coming out to our webinar and supporting us for the past year! It means a lot to us and we hope we've piqued the interest of AR for many people.
The Printeraction Team will always be around to answer questions and direct you to more information, so please feel free to ask and email us at [email protected].
Kitchen nightmares?
As consumers become increasingly more inquisitive about what actually goes into their food, McDonald’s in Australia have launched a new app to let their customers find out more about the food they are eating. The TrackMyMacca’s app uses a combination of GPS and augmented reality technologies to give the user interactive information about the supply-chain used for a particular restaurant. Users can track the journey of their food from farm to plate all at the touch of a button.
AUGMENTED REALITY
Cosmetic use of augmented reality
Really cool! Watch the video here! How awesome would it be to preview makeup before you buy it?
Ever had problems getting your kids to read the newspaper? In the Tokyo Newspaper, parts of the text are AR-ready for kids to point a phone at the print and get snippets written specifically for a younger audience.
Innovative and fun!

Check out this cool panorama AR view of London!
It's here! Our webinar is ready to go and we'll be presenting on FEBRUARY 5th, from 1:00-1:30pm. Check our website for the webinar link and we'll see you there!
I should have posted this a very long time ago, but here are few screenshots of Googles proposed Smart Glasses, Project Glass. For the video, follow this link http://youtu.be/9c6W4CCU9M4

Broadsheet Blues
The thought of grappling with a large broadsheet paper and trawling through pages of tiny black and white copy can really put young kids off reading newspapers. To address this, a newspaper company in Japan have introduced an augmented reality (AR) app to make sitting down and reading a paper much more appealing and engaging for children. The app uses AR to overlay large, colourful headlines, animations and cartoons over the articles.
This seems like a good way to get a new generation involved in print.
Clad in a stylish, black zip-up top and coolly holding the gaze, he could be an upmarket hitman researching his next job. One columnist likened him to “an assassin.”
But that was just mischief, since the New York Times knew the bearded, beanie-wearing man on the New York subway was Google’s...
AUGMENTED REALITY (AR) has been integrated into other technologies for decades now, but is still perceived as a relatively new and innovative software concept due to its still largely unexplored potential.
Using a live view of a physical, real-world environment that is augmented via computer generated sensory input, AR allows virtual 3D renderings to be manipulated by hand and thus aid development across a variety of design industries.
3D technology firm Inition - which specialises in augmented and virtual reality, gestural interaction and 3D printing - invited us on a tour around its studio in East London this week and we got to see some of the firm’s innovative 3D technologies in action.
The concept demonstrated relies on the use of special patterned markers that tell the software what 3D images to project onto the screen so virtual objects can be dissected and explored with related information in a way not possible in real life.

Wrap 920AR (credit: Vuzix Corporation)
People who’ve lost sight in one eye can still see with the other, but they lack binocular depth perception.
A pair of augmented reality glasses being built at the University of Yamanashi in Japan artificially introduces a feeling of depth in a person’s healthy eye, MIT Technology Review reports.
The researchers created software that makes use of the twin cameras in a Vuzix Wrap 920AR. When a person puts the glasses on, each camera scopes out the scene that each eye would see. The images are funneled into software on a computer, which combines the perspective of both cameras and creates a “defocus” effect (some objects stay in focus while others stay out of focus), resulting in a feeling of depth. That version of the scene in front of them is projected to the single healthy eye of the wearer.
Only a few weeks until our AR Webinar! Stay tuned! We have lots coming up.
For those who are fans of the horror genre the Hotel 626 game created by Doritos might be for you. It uses AR technology to create the feeling of being in a haunted hotel. Unfortunately the game was shut down but this is the internet and you'll probably be able to still find it online. Enjoy!
An amazing book of poetry all rendered in beautiful augmented reality! This truly blends AR and art together! http://www.betweenpageandscreen.com/
Thanks, theepicdynamite, for the share!
This time, we bring to you: Overlaying films over real life locations!
This cool app is in development; How cool would it be to look at films shot in the exact location you're standing in? Extremely!
