The Boy and the Lemon by M Theory

The book had a companion augmented reality app downloaded to the IPad to use along with the book. Then attendees followed the steps below.
1. Lay the book on a flat surface.
2. Point the camera at the whole pictures in the book.
3. Watch the images come to life in AR!
Jack definitely needed more luck after his house was crushed by a giant lemon from outer space. An immersive tale followed Jack’s adventures.
