If you want to see some really well done Augmented Reality (AR) go here – plus – John Mayer explaining AR is probably more interesting than me…

So I’ve seen some AR in the browser for a little while now and have wanted to play around with the FLAR Toolkit for some time but like most things…I just hadn’t gotten around to it. So I finally got some nerve to hop in tonight and thanks to the FLARManager I was able to get stuff going pretty darn quick. I LOVE this community! Right away I was able to get the proverbial earth and moon example going but have a couple of other idea’s I’d love to try out.

Want to see it for yourself? Well, print out the card you find here, make sure you have a webcam hooked up, and then go to here. Flash will ask for your permission to use your webcam and once you do – BLAMMO – hold up your freshly minted card to your camera and start seeing the AR experience for yourself! It’s better than unicorn tears or flowers that taste like cake!

You should be seeing something very much like this…

I’m going to try and do something more interesting but we’ll see how far it goes. It’s incredibly fun to play with…I wonder if I could make a game out of it? Hmmmm……
