New Yearly Linkfest

As you may have guessed this passing week was very slow in augmented reality news (or any news for that matter). Nevertheless, I scoured the web and bring you this weekly linkfest. Last week I reported on the winter crop of augmented reality games coming from Qualcomm AR Game Studio. The videos of three more [...]
