Abstract

A method of augmenting reality of an image, comprising providing a lenticular lens for viewing an image, wherein the image is a lenticular image comprising at least two interlaced images. At least two fiducial markers are provided in the image. A first sensor located at a first distance from the image detects a first fiducial marker, and a second sensor located at a second distance from the image detects a second fiducial marker, wherein the detection of the each of the first and the second fiducial markers triggers a computing process delivering augmented reality to a user via a screen. The second distance is closer to the image than the first distance, and the second fiducial marker is capable of being detected by the second sensor from the second distance, but not from the first distance.
