Augmented Reality Compilation

Rendering images with virtual computer-generated imagery is fast becoming the new trend for companies, regarding their advertising and marketing efforts.It is with this real-time exchange medium that some large firms have put together campaigns, encouraging customers to buy. It is an added bonus of being entertained post purchase with an interactive item. I have put together a compilation of some of my favorite campaigns for you to enjoy, all in one place.

Sure there are a few snags or barriers to Augmented Reality (AR). First being that one is required to have a webcam and in some cases a printer. A web-installed plug-in also complements the list of necessities to engage with this medium. However it is brilliant and I feel that we will see a whole lot more AR campaigns during 2010. May I mention that these videos are mostly around a minute in duration each, so enjoy easy viewing.

Nissan created this website which actually has you print off a steering wheel and interact with a Nissan driving experience. If this sounds like a bit too much work, then you can view a demo too. http://takethewheel.nissan.com.au/
