It’s the hologram of the future – today! Augmented Reality (AR) is the craze sweeping the nation that perhaps hasn’t swept you off your feet just yet – but that’s all about to change with the release of the very special July issue of Desktop magazine.
Sitting in the centre of the front cover of Desktop’s July issue you will find what is known as an Augmented Reality ‘Marker’ – a square box with a simple symbol, or pattern inside it. This has been set up to trigger your AR interaction. In order to activate this very cool experience you simply go to a designated online portal (located at www.desktopmag.com.au/ar) where you will find instructions on how to use the marker by holding it up in front of your web cam. The marker then springs into life, instantly replaced by a Desktop inspired animation courtesy of the talented folks over at Boffswana.
