Editor's Notes

  • #4 AR differs from true virtual reality in that a computer-generated component is added to the real environment, whereas in virtual reality the entire experience is computer generated. What is Augmented Reality? AR is the process of taking digital information and integrating it with a live streaming video or with the user’s actual, real time environment. This technology will take a current picture and will blend the new information into the image. The source of the augmented reality is the software that was developed. The AR that is utilized by smartphones will utilize GPS technology and allow the users location to be pinpointed in order to determine the devices orientation.
  • #17 Image is linked to video with examples
  • #24 http://www.kleinspiration.com/2 How do you use the books? Usually, I introduce my children (or co-op students) to the literary technique first.  I give them a definition and some examples, then ask them to help me come up with some examples. Next, we’ll read the book together paying special attention to the use of the technique. Afterwards, we’ll talk about how the author crafted his or her words and made the technique really work with the story.  Again, we work together to write some examples.  (These are always better than the examples before the book was read!) 013/05/using-augmented-reality-via-aurasma-in.html
  • #27 Show video
  • #29 Download Aurasma, make an account, create and name an image/video that you want to be your overlay, and then select and use that as you photograph your “trigger” area. Finally, add it to a channel that you have created, make it public, and finish. In order for your students to see it, they will need to “like/follow” your channel. That way all the videos you make public and post on that channel will be visible.
  • #31 There are basically two main types of AR. Marker-based AR requires a specific label, such as a QR bar code to access information. Marker based AR combines position data from a phone’s GPS and compass with an intenal accelerometer or gyroscope, which determines the orientation of the phone to determine what infomatin is to be overlaid on the image provided by the cell phone camera. Markered AR puts a label on an object that is read by the smartphone, which then accesses a website that contains more information. Markerless apps combine camera views with digital data. It allows location-related content to be layered on top of the live camera feed. –YELP Location based apps allow users to add URLs, phone numbers, etc. to points of interest. This is called geotagging. Peters, Thomas A., and Lori Bell. "Smartphones, QR Codes, and Augmented Reality in the Library." The Handheld Library: Mobile Technology and the Librarian.
