App Development.

WOW this is something that I never figured that I'd have to do. So in order to get what I want, it looks like i'm going to have to make my own simple app using Eclipse, with the vuforea plug in. This is all need code to me, but ive found a 3 and half hour tutorial which i can do tonight. I won't spend weeks trying to figure this one out, if I can't do it, then I'll have to move on, what with dead lines and all..

Vuforia

I found this GREAT bit of development kit called Vuforia, but to develop for iOS, I have to pay $99 a year to be able to do so. Other apps that iv'e found that are free and allow me to AR video into a tag only allow pre-made video's and pictures. I keep getting thwarted at every turn.

AR Jackpot!

OK! so i've been playing with this app that lets you create your own AR, and it supports video! And its free! So thats jolly good.. I'm going to render out a test of my current animation, and give it a go!

Moar research plz

Ive been looking all night for a way to get my head around this AR thing, but I keep reaching dead ends. I've got it to work with images and 3D models but no video, until I stumbled across this story from the BBC

Augmented Reality

Iv'e now started to research into AR to get my cereal box come to life in front of the children's eyes! I'm sure this is going to be a lot more difficult that I first thought, but we don't know until we try..!

I'm next going to traul through the different free programs out there, read up on some reviews, and see whats best for me!

EDIT: Wow this is very tricky. It seems everything I can get hold of with only work with 3D models, rather than video. There might be a way I can get it all working, but its not looking good. Iv'e downloaded a 14 day free trial of an app called Augment, which lets me simply create points of interest for things to happen in, but again, only with 3D models.

The Order of the Planets

Planet Facts.

I've been trawling the internet for facts about the planets and the solar system, and ive stumbled across this site: http://space-facts.com/planets/

Seems to be pretty good and all the information is cohesive. Ill have to fact check it all before using it, but its a good start
