indirect view of a physical real-‐world environment whose elements are merged with, or augmented by virtual-‐generated imagery creaGng a mixed reality. Source: Wikipedia Augmented reality is characterized by the incorporaGon of arGficial or virtual elements into the physical world, in real-‐Gme. In short – “Make cool 3D stuff follow a marker” 1999 -‐ ARToolkit is released Developed by Hirokazo Kato at the HITLab and is demoed at SigGraph later that year. 2009 -‐ FLARToolKit is released ARTollkit ported to Adobe Flash (FLARToolKit) by Tomohiko Koyama, aka Saqoosha From NyARToolkit(Java ported version of ARToolkit) bringing augmented reality to the web browser. First version was released in May 2008 About AR & History IntroducGon: All about Augmented Reality, the world as we know it!
projecGon uses virtual imagery to augment what you see live. Televised sporGng events frequently uGlize this type of augmented reality. ProjecGon can also be interacGve. IE Virtual or projecGon keyboards. RecogniGon RecogniGon is a type of augmented reality that uses the recogniGon of shapes, faces or other real world items to provide supplementary virtual informaGon to you in real-‐Gme for example a marker. LocaGon locaGon uses triangulaGon technology, such as GPS, to instantaneously provide you with relevant direcGonal informaGon. For example, you can use a smart phone with GPS to determine your locaGon, and then have onscreen arrows-‐-‐superimposed over a live image of what's in front of you-‐-‐point you in the direcGon of where you need to go. **Demos Types of AR IntroducGon: All about Augmented Reality, the world as we know it!

Webcam Captures video stream containing AR marker 2. FLARToolkit analyzes image and finds outer rectangle 3. FLARToolkit calculates 3D posiGon of outer rectangle 4. FLARToolkit looks for inner marker in the parern list 5. You use transform matrix to transform a 3D object Building your applicaGon 1. IniGalize new FLARManager instance from XML file 2. Add FLARmanger instance to the display list 3. Setup FLARMarkerEvent handlers 4. Setup 3D scene 5. Render the scene in an enterframe loop 6. Retrieve transform matrix from marker 7. Apply that transform to 3D object
that can even be used for applicaGons that make a profit. FlarManger Framework You have an opGon of using FlarManger which is an open source framework that handles all the AR tracking and set up. Reliability A number of applicaGons have been developed using Flash its proved and not a new framework. Community Flash has a strong community, which provides support, source files, examples , and much more. Development Gme Much faster development, good for prototyping, very flexible, offers more features, easy to maintain. Benefits! Flash and AR
