Flapi, our in-house Augmented Reality mascot, is in the spotlight again. After a high-profile stint at Engadget, this time Flapi stars in an Exame Informática (a Portuguese leading IT magazine) article and video.
You can find the video below, where Ivan Franco, our R&D Director, talks about YDreams’ work with Augmented Reality, and showcases Flapi and the Interactive Bubbles (in portuguese):
UM is one of Portugal’s first experimental and mixed media art festivals. The International Festival for Experimental and Mixed Media joins national and international artists under one roof. All of these artists are interested in creating different forms of media where interactivity and liveliness are the protagonists. The theme for the 2008 edition of the festival is Gesture and Movement.
Not only is YDreams sponsoring the event, but Ivan Franco, YDreams’ Research and Development director, will be one of the main speakers of a panel that focuses on gesture and movement based interfaces.
The Festival is going to be held throughout the city of Lisbon from the 19th to the 22 of June, 2008.
