While perusing the BlackBerry From AT&T Facebook page I learned that AT&T and RIM have been traveling the US giving out BlackBerry Torch 9800s through their “street teams.” You can read more about them at this link. These street teams have been handing out cards that let you explore the BlackBerry Torch 9800 in Augmented Reality 3D using your computer with a connected webcam. If you don’t have one of the cards you can simply print one out.
The idea is that you hold this card in front of your webcam while on the Facebook augmented reality app and it will show a 3D demo of the BlackBerry Torch 9800 wherever you move the card. I admit this is kind of cheesy but I was having loads of fun with it. If you have some time to spare it is quite entertaining. Check it out on Facebook at this link.
You can check out a demo video of the experience below:
