Augmented Reality – Test 1

I just got an augmented reality demo to work! It was really easy – Just one afternoon of work. To try it out you need: A webcam, a printout of this page. Click on this link and hold up your printout to your webcam in order to play with the demo.

I pretty much followed this video tutorial by The Flash Blog. It describes how to use the FLAR and Papervision 3d toolkits with Flex to detect a symbol in a video feed and map a 3D model to its plane. I just adapted his tutorial to Flash. (I’ll post my .FLA shortly)
