Description:
News about an artwork that makes characters come alive with augmented reality. On April 24, villains, super heroes and others invaded Dam Square in Amsterdam – virtually via augmented reality on iPhones and Androids.
Comments:
The characters could easily have been historic figures. That would bring all sorts of history alive by placing virtual objects in context. The markers can display animations, videos and 3D realistic rendered objects. The implications for k-12 are that students see new connections, if history is presented in context.

I plan to use virtual markers in an artwork this fall, so if you have questions about virtual markers - I can get answers.

ReplyDeleteThis Teach 42 blog post shows great uses of the virtual markers in the classroom using computers rather than smartphones.
