What is Augmented Reality?AR is a technology that uses a webcam and a trigger image embedded in a book or card to create interactive 3-D models on a computer.

Why AR?21st Century Media Centers should have a
wide variety of media formats: books, magazines, audio books, e-books, databases and multimedia books.
Infuse TechnologyHigh Interest for students
Why AR in EducationAR is a revolutionary concept that makes virtual, 3D objects appear in the real world, attached to real objects. Users look through a Viewing Device or at a monitor to see virtual objects like planets, volcanoes, the human heart or dinosaurs. These can be attached to cards, the pages of a book, interactive white board or even on the floor or wall to provide a 3D animated replica that fills the room. Virtual objects excel at conveying spatial, temporal and contextual concepts-especially when the real objects (or real replicas) are too expensive, dangerous, or fragile. They can also be highly interactive, letting users erupt a volcano, build a human heart or pull planets out of the solar system for closer inspection. Jeff Dunn @ edudemic
