Geolocation
Geolocation is the process of retrieving positional data and incorporating it into the AR data experience.
In some cases, A GPS mechanism can be used
Often used with Geotagging, it provides a system for labeling the surrounding area

Markers
Some AR applications require a marker for real world orientation; not all do
Often AR triggers are located in QR codes These AR triggers may provide an in road to

How is today's Technology Different
Reactive - green screens were passive and independent of user interaction
Multifunctional - whereas an NLF First Down marker may be a single entity, today's media will allow users to interact with GPS, Maps, web pages, and a variety of other modalities of information

In the Past...
AR ideas have been around for a long time Past technology was not up to the challenge
of integrating virtual and real information Implementations of AR technology was often
done at the professional level in area such as the military or mainline media

How Current Technology is Different
Today's platform include cameras, GPS systems, and motion sensors that can make the AR environment interactive
What once was a lack in processing speed is now possible. Processing body positioning, handling advanced character recognition, interpreting facial or body movements and orientation is now feasible.

How Current Technology is Different
Combines real world and virtual Uses real world input to
generate virtual environments

AR Comes to the Consumer
Will be a lot of hype Some apps useful Some apps will be poor or unnecessary Some apps will just be silly
TLTC Summer InstituteJune 9, 2011

Applications
Simple applications may be a simple as video/data overlays
More complicated applications will better blend both worlds
