Did you ever want to bring the magic of augmented reality to your class? With today's technology, creating mystery and engagement in your classroom is easier than ever. Augmented reality is most commonly used with a mobile internet-connected device. The user must download the mobile augmented reality app and point the camera at the trigger image or object, and the virtual content appears on the screen.
