  • Layar used to focus more on environmental AR. I’m a little disappointed that they shifted to print. It was really fun to look about the room and create Layars on the walls :-)

• Socrative - Quick quizzes.

MoveNote - Quick, easy video lecture creator (mobile). Upload pictures or PPT and include your video (webcam) from your phone. I’ve used this to do some “flipped” lectures. The problem I have with it is that I can’t download a final video. I’ve also has a small problem with conversion of some PPTs. However, it is good for quick and dirty tutorials.
