Android Augmented Reality on Dam-square Amsterdam

With special thanks to Roel from Adroidworld I came upon this unique event. Tommorow you can participate in a special flashmob event with your mobile Android phone. With a special Layar app you will be able to see all kind of famous figures around the Dam-square in Amsterdam.

Every square in every major city in the world knows the 'human statue' phenomenon. On the Dam square in Amsterdam we've the following set of characters: a Darth Vader, a superman, a gladiator and some undecipherable sort of gothic characters.

Even though they have nothing to do with the city of Amsterdam, people go and have their picture taken with them on and off.

But not on the 24th of April! Then, the majority of people will be photographing the empty space beside Darth. Because that space will be occupied by virtual 'human sculptures', brought alive by Augmented Reality applications on iPhones and Android devices!

JOIN the flashmob on saturday the 24th around 14h. Prepare your phone, install the right Augmented Reality software, choose your favorite character and contribute it to the pool of virtual 'human sculptures' on the Dam square.
