As part of this week’s BlackBerry World™ conference in Orlando Florida, where more than 5,000 people have gathered to see the latest BlackBerry innovations, Wikitude and RIM announced their global partnership. Big news coming from the event was the launch of the BlackBerry Bold 9900 and 9930 smartphones, which feature a built-in compass (magnetometer) enabling augmented reality (AR) technology. These brand new devices will come pre-equipped with the Wikitude World Browser, which overlays information on what the user sees through the smartphone’s camera viewfinder.
