The main reason for our surprise is the ease with which they can reproduce these images. For the user, from home, can enjoy augmented reality all you need is a downloadable software and a good quality webcam that runs on a Windows system.

However, this system is not without its drawbacks. When using the camera to recognize the images, everything is limited to the scope of the camera. Also, before using the digital image system, each page of the book should be introduced into the system with accurate measurement. Once this is done everything works great, we can see the 3D object in the space just where is the image, moving in perfect synchronicity with our movement.

As expected already is thinking about implementing it in books for sale. The idea is that once bought the book, you can download the necessary software ready to use. The camera recognizes the book in question and already has the images in the database.

And this is just the beginning of a long list of books that can benefit from this type of augmented reality. Encyclopedia and travel books, decor and cuisine are just some ideas that can sell more than good in the market. Technology never ceases to amaze and now haunts us even in dusty old books.
