Layar, the development company that has brought us a variety of awesome augmented reality applications, has another treat in store - this time, for developers. A free tool called "Layar Player" reportedly allows developers to "embed augmented reality directly into [their] own iPhone app."
Here's what Layar says about the tool, taken from its blog:
The Layar Player is a free and easy tool allowing you to offer AR experiences directly within your own iPhone App. It is a unique piece of code that can be embedded in your App like a YouTube video on a website. [sic]What's more, the guys over at Layar promise users they won't need much iOS development experience in order to use the tool.
Whether you have an advanced knowledge of Xcode or you are just beginning to explore the iPhone development environment, with the Layar Player it is easy to add engaging Augmented Reality elements to your App. [sic]For more information, head over to Layar Player's webpage, and download the development tool there.
