Leap into 3D with ‘Augmented Reality’ Coloring Books
Disney’s research team has created an app that will
turn color book characters into 3D figures. The team has designed it to scan
the page of one of the coloring books using the device’s camera and change it
from a two dimensional drawing into a 3D character. As color is added to the
drawing, it applies the same color to the drawing on the screen. So far, the
app has been a success but has yet to be tried with kids.
This relates to emerging technology because it is the
new upcoming thing that is advancing technology around us. For a long time
coloring has been an old thing that kids do but lately has been becoming
outdated with technology growing around us.
The most interesting thing I found in this article is
that Disney is literally turning drawings into characters that can move and
look 3D on a computer screen.
