The Winchester Augmented Reality Team (WART) will hold a workshop on Monday, Dec. 16, from 6-8 p.m., at the Winchester Public Library, 80 Washington St., in the Large Meeting Room.

The group will walk through all the steps needed to create your own AR channel and insert AR objects of your choosing into your virtual space. This session is free and open to all.

If you want to be one of four walk-throughs feel free to sign up at the link on the meeting page and put WORKSHOP in the comment section. After four have signed up, anyone after that will be on a waiting list.

If you prefer to bring your laptop and follow along on your own, that would be great too.

Please note, to make the most of this workshop, look at the meeting page early on and think about some decisions you will have to make and if you have an image, video, or other object you wish to upload to your AR space, bring it with you.

If you have time, the Getting Started and Content Guidelines are very helpful and informative reading material.

If you have any questions; for example your video is over 20 Megabytes, send an inquiry email to hello@wart.win and we will figure out what is possible to use.
