Aurasma

Hopefully you have already downloaded the Aurasma App and have installed it on your iPad or iPhone. If not, please do so now, its free and here is a screenshot of what it looks like. Simply create a username, enter a password, enter it again, and put in your

email address... click "Join".

Aurasma has been nice enough to provide us with some great tips on how to

use the app. Rather than re-type them I'll post images so you can view.

When you first launch Aurasma it seems pretty simple and blank. Press the "A" shaped button at the bottom of the screen this will bring up your menu as well as your explore area. You can then follow the steps above but I'll be nice and break it down a bit for you as well.

First, click the "+" at the bottom of the page (this brings you to the create mode).

You can use some of the overlays they have designed or you can create your

own. To create your own select: "device" on the bottom right of the screen.

It's a pretty blank screen, so click the "+" sign at the top right. Then select where

you want the overlay to come from. In this case you can use the photo album to

select any movie you have stored on your device.

Select a video from your camera roll and the click "Use"

Once the video is loaded, press "select". Name your overlay, press "public" and

then add /create a channel select "Finish".

Now you will create the Aura. Name the aura (I named this "sbox01" and click

"Finish". To create your Aura you will need an image... this one was way too

blurry. At the bottom center of the screen you'll see a red/yellow/green bar. You

want it Green or it won't work.

You can now see that it is green. Click the camera button with the right facing

chevron. You can maneuver your overlay and adjust it as you like. Then give

your Aura a new name, press "public" and click "Finish". You have just created

your very own Augmented Reality Aura! Congratulations!
