Almost got the show together now. Main pratical exercises will be to edit a mobile mapping application using geolocation API to show users location and editing a Layar Augmented Reality view to show some building on the Encliffe Village ecampus. In both cases this only involved the adition of some existing HTML/ Javascript and/or JSON so don't worry about brushing up your programming skills - not necessary. I'll bring a couple of mobile devices along for testing but if you have an iPhone 3GS or Android with compass you are welcome to use that. Download Layar from AppStore/AndroidMarket (free). Also a QR code reader might save time typing in urls. We recommend MAADqr for iPhone and i-nigma for Android. Looking a delegate list looks like a good mix of technical and technically minded.
