Papervision with Augmented Reality / FLARToolKit…………..Part 1
Hello folks, due to a job needed recently I’m playing with Augmented Reality with papervision.
I’m going to give some guide to create a simple 3D by using 3Dsmax studio and export it to collada file and implement to flash by using FLARTToolkit.
Augmented Reality is a technology that allows you to superimpose images into real-time environments by using a shape or symbol to recognize through webcam.
and papervision is a 3D flash engine.
To get a better idea what the Hell is that.. just watch the youtube video:

Before get started make sure you have:
1.FLARToolKit you can download from here

2. FLAR marker generator (yes scroll down and search it):

3. Collada exporter plugins for 3Ds max:

Lastly:
A printer or marker pen and paper
Yes you can draw the symbol by yourself later on if you don’t have a damn printer like me.
That’s for today, part 2 will be start out soon enough i think….Uh mm.. Until then get your self prepare with those whatever.
Any experts are welcome to give comment for my tutorial. Cheers
