Weekend Workshop: Intro to AR Development

Upload

The word is out: Augmented Reality is the future. With Apple’s recent release of the ARKit, Google’s growth of Google Tango, and AR content rising in popularity, now is the perfect time to get involved! Companies know they should utilize AR technology, but are not sure how. This is the opportunity for you- the future thinker and avid learner- to dive in, carve out your path, and show them the way. You will leave with a new knowledge of the the augmented world, the ability to build a simple AR application, a new network of passionate people and a great start to your AR future!
