Abstract: An augmented reality system that provides multi-media presentations super-imposed on and presented with a series of augmented-reality enabled (“ARE”) tokens. An user electronic appliance, possessing a display screen, a camera, and a software application, takes an image of an ARE token. A unique visual identifier is associated with each ARE token. A multi-media presentation, including a video component, an audio component, and, optionally, a haptic component, is associated with unique visual identifier. When the software application detects an ARE token, it creates the unique visual identifier and transmits it to a remote server and database. The remote server and database transmits the multi-media presentation, in return. The user electronic appliance plays and presents the multi-media presentation. The multi-media presentation associated with each ARE token in a series can interact and interoperate with the multi-media presentation associated with each of the other ARE tokens in the series.

Abstract: An augmented reality system that provides multi-media presentations super-imposed on and presented in conjunction with a standard printed book. The multi-media presentation may either be superimposed on the printed book itself; or on a scalable frame, called a virtual portal. A user electronic appliance, possessing a display screen, a camera, and a software application, takes an image of a printed page. A unique visual identifier is associated with each page. A multi-media presentation, including a video component, an audio component, and, optionally, a haptic component, is associated with unique visual identifier.
