  • Publication number: 20050288078
    Abstract: A game for providing a mixed reality experience to a user, the game comprising: a game board having at least one marker, game objects to be manipulated by the user, each object having at least two surfaces, each surface having a marker and game logic to manage game play according to predetermined game rules. In addition, the position and orientation of the game board and game objects is tracked by identifying markers on the game board and game objects, and game play occurs in response to manipulation of at least one object. Furthermore, multimedia content associated with at least one identified marker is retrieved and superimposed in a relative position to the at least one identified marker, to provide a mixed reality experience to the user.

  • Publication number: 20050289590
    Abstract: A marketing platform for providing a mixed reality experience to a user via a mobile communications device of the user, the platform including an image capturing module to capture images of an item in a first scene, the item having at least one advertising marker, a communications module to transmit the captured images to a server, and to receive images in a second scene from the server providing a mixed reality experience to the user. In addition, the second scene is generated by retrieving multimedia content associated with an identified advertising marker, and superimposing the associated multimedia content over the first scene in a relative position to the identified marker. Furthermore the associated multimedia content corresponds to a predetermined advertisement for goods or services.
