Looking at colour combinations for the app. Figured looking at differrent covers would help.

Augmented Reality as a marketing tool

A very interesting example would be the Augmented Reality November issue of Esquire magazine. Simply done for marketing the magazine, does not however impact the readers in anyway. It's just the interactivity that makes it interesting. Readers buy the issue only to find out what augmented reality is and how it would work as its still a new concept.

Great Marketing Strategy!!
