Great AR book for free at AP2011 event

In an earlier post we mentioned that we are supporting the Augmented Planet (AP2011) on June 1 and 2 in Kensington, London as Gold Sponsor with Samsung bada. There are still discounted tickets available (see here). But is not what this post is about.

The organisers of AP2011 told us that every attendee will get a free copy of the just released book Professional Augmented Reality Browsers for Smartphones: Building Mobile Augmented Reality and Image Recognition Applications which is worth some 22 quid on Amazon. Below is some info about the book.

Finally: Free Chapters of the bada Book

In an earlier blog post we announced that the source code for the recipes introduced in our Introduction to bada book are available online. Now, finally, we are also very happy to let you know that you can find selected chapters of our bada book on the same site for free download. Find links to the individual chapters below.

I published another blog post that should give you easier access to all the various recipe descriptions and source code presented in the book as well as online on the bada developer site.
