Augmented reality
From WikID
"On the spectrum between virtual reality, which creates immersive, computer-generated environments, and the real world, augmented reality is closer to the real world. Augmented reality adds graphics, sounds, haptic feedback and smell to the natural world as it exists." [How stuff works] Some interesting links on this topic: A collection of Abstract prototypes in WikID. Augmented reality explained by How stuff works (http://www.howstuffworks.com/augmentedreality.htm) . BuildAR (http://www.buildar.co.nz/buildar-free-version/) , the free version. BuildAR provides the basic functionality required to construct augmented reality scenes. You can load a single 3D model onto each marker, and arrange the models using the graphical editing tools or the simple user interface. This version of BuildAR has continued to be free for non-commercial use. For commercial use, or to take advantage of an updated feature set, you might need BuildAR Pro. Crayon physics (http://www.crayonphysics.com/) is a 2D physics puzzle / sandbox game, in which you get to experience what it would be like if your drawings would be magically transformed into real physical objects. Cyberlink powerdirector (http://www.cyberlink.com/products/powerdirector/overview_en_US.html?&r=1) Layar (http://www.layar.com/) The Layar Reality Browser is a mobile augmented reality application available for users of most smartphones, including iPhone and Android devices. Augmented reality technology allows us to view digital information superimposed onto reality with the aid of cameras, GPS, compasses and accelerometers. With Layar installed on a modern smartphone, anyone can easily discover new information by simply looking around their world. Mixed reality (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mixed_reality) or Augmented reality (http://www.example.com) in Wikipedia] Paper prototyping (http://www.paperprototyping.com/) is "a variation of usability testing where representative users perform realistic tasks by interacting with a paper version of the interface that is manipulated by a person playing computer, who doesnt explain how the interface is intended to work." Storyboard With Windows Live Movie Maker (http://windows.microsoft.com/enGB/windows/explore/produce-your-own-movie) , you can edit your photos and videos by adding special effects, transitions, sound, and captions to help tell your story. Movie Maker requires Windows 7 or Windows Vista.
