Q. How do I form the ‘M’ shape?

A. To form the ‘M’ you need to show the marker to your web cam in the upright position so you can read the ‘M’ on the card.

From here you need to slowly turn it 180 degrees so the ‘M’ on the card is upside down and then tilt it back slowly until you see the virtual ‘M’ forming out of the pieces.

Q. How can I help prevent my Augmented Reality from disappearing or not following where I move?

A. Please make sure you aren't covering any part of the symbol with your fingers. Also make sure there is sufficient light in the room for your webcam to see the marker properly.

Beware of any glaring lights that might reflect off your symbol and stop it from appearing black to the camera.

Q. What's the recommended system for running Augmented Reality?

A. Augmented reality runs best using Chrome, Safari and Firefox browsers on both MAC and PC running Flash 10.

It doesn’t require any special graphics hardware but a decent system CPU is needed to get the most out of it (faster than 2.4ghz).

OK hopefully that's helped you out, so have another go!
