Hello all, this post is to inform you that a new release of AR-media iOS Player has been released and it's freely available on the App Store. All users of the Professional version of ARPlugin for Vectorworks will be able to access and use these new features. The new release includes: - Geo-referenced models: display AR content on a selected location without the need for markers. - Relocatable models: fine-tune the AR visualization by adjusting the position of your models and the user's point of view on the fly. - QR codes support: it is now possible to scan QR codes containing links to .armedia files on the web. - Gyro 3-DOF tracking: display AR content in your proximity without the need for markers and geo-referenced models. Best regards, Inglobe Technologies

The Development Lab of Inglobe Technolgies released today the AR-media Augmented Reality player for iOS. "ARMedia Player" is the first iOS application that allows users to interact with virtual models, created by means of the AR-media Plugin for Vectorworks, directly in the real physical space using AR (Augmented Reality) technology. When aiming the device's camera to the AR Marker, users can simulate the setup of their models in an unrestricted way and interact with their features no matter where they are. This way the models come to life letting users enjoy an immersive experience of the virtual models in their surroundings. The software is a general purpose player suitable for studying virtual prototypes of any kind in physical locations. In addition, it is a unique tool for presenting projects and ideas in many fields including Design, Architecture, Engineering, Construction and Education. [video:youtube]hbbrmQJV7fU The iOS ARplayer is available for iPad2, iPhones and iPod Touch. It can be freely downloaded from Apple's App Store and, as it works in association with the latest update of AR-media Plugin Professional v2.2, it is offered for free to users who have already bought a license. Here is a video in which you can see some of the main features of iOS ARPlayer: [video:youtube]PVgN-C02-v8 You can download the iOS ARPlayer now directly from Apple?s App Store: http://itunes.apple.com/app/armedia-player/id502524441 For more information please visit our website: http://www.inglobetechnologies.com/iosplayer

Hello, I'm happy to announce that the ARmedia Augmented Reality Plugin for Vectorworks 2012 is now available from Inglobe Technologies. [video:youtube]WTYGL9oRenw Main features: - Markers Library: with AR-media Plugin you can create Augmented Reality scenes based on a pre-set library of markers. You are free to associate any 3D model to any predefined marker available. - Marker Generator: create your own markers. Creating your own markers you will be able to provide users with highly personalized Augmented Reality content. - Exporter: create independent Augmented Reality files with extension .armedia and let other users enjoy them using the free AR-media? Player. You are free to distribute this content at no charge for most uses in compliance with the License Agreement. - ?Lighting Debug? Mode: light is an important factor in Augmented Reality applications as it affects strongly the performance and stability of the AR visualization specifically for what concerns the tracking of the markers. With AR-media Plugin you have better control on the tracking algorithms, thus being able to adjust important parameters as a function of the real lighting conditions of your real world scene. Moreover you are able to adjust tracking parameters with useful visual feedback. This is what we call the ?Lighting Debug? Mode - Layers Management: each layer of your model which contains 3D objects can be displayed independently during the AR visualization. - Timed Slideshow: you can organize your 3D contents to act as a set of slides. In fact, each layer can be displayed for a time interval of 5 seconds and then replaced with the following layer. - Real-time Shadows: you can choose a light source from your model to cast shadows on 3D objects, in order to obtain a more realistic visualization. Moreover, you can interact with this light source in real-time, moving it and modifying the shadows? visualization. - Clipping/Sectioning: thanks to the Clipping planes? management features, it is possible to create sections of 3D objects in real-time. - Soundtracks: create more involving scenes by setting up audio tracks that will play in background during the Augmented Reality experience.

Hi all, I am Gioacchino from Inglobe Technologies. Inglobe Technologies invites all interested users to apply as a beta-tester for the upcoming release of ARPlugin for Nemetschek Vectorworks. ARPlugin permits to enhance Vectorworks with Augmented Reality: you will be able to visualize your 3D models in a real environment just by using a paper marker and a common camera. Please visit our site (http://www.inglobetechnologies.com) if you want to get a more in-depth view on what AR is and some of its main applications. Some of the main features of ARPlugin are: - Custom markers: create custom markers and then use them to display your 3D content in Augmented Reality (AR) - Custom message: you can enter a custom message which will be displayed during the AR visualization - Soundtrack: configure a playlist that will be played during the AR visualization - Export as ARMedia Resource File: save your model and share it with your clients/colleagues. These files can be visualized with the free ARPlayer (available on our website at http://www.inglobetechnologies.com/armedia_player.php) even without having Vectorworks installed - Layers Management: organizing your model into different layers will enable you to display each one of it indipendently in real-time - Real-time Shadows: choose a light which will cast shadows on 3D objects to create more realistic sceneries - Real-time Sectioning: manage up to 6 clipping planes to perform real-time sectioning of your models. If you use Vectorworks 2012 and are interested in becoming a beta-tester, please send an e-mail to beta@inglobetechnologies.com Kindest Regards, Gioacchino @ Inglobe Technologies
