AR Games research

I have tried searching for tutorials on how to create an augmented reality game. It must be a real tedious job because it is extremely difficult to find a good tutorial online.

Having said that, over the weekend, I have attempted on creating an AR using D'Fusion. D'fusion compared to Metaio is much harder to grasp. I haven't had a successful AR from D'fusion but I had hope to master it by the end of this wednesday.

With last week's consultation with mr. Razif, he had introduced to us ARToolKit and ARMedia. To be able to work with him, I thought of researching this software and understanding how it works.

ARToolKit - Is a C and C++ language software. Mr. Razif did mention and explain about this language in softwares therefore I understand what it means and how it works.
 Programmers are able to calculate precisely the user's viewpoint so that the AR would work well in real-time. What worries me is my lack of ability to program as I am not a programmer.

So how does a person create an Augmented Reality game?

Through Mr. Razif, an AR game is created with the game first and then brought into an AR software.
In conclusion, create your game off of Flash/ Maya and then import it into D'fusion/AR Media.

I found some very useful AR games tutorials using flash--> http://www.adobe.com/inspire-archive/august2009/articles/article7/index.html?trackingid=EVHFF
