PBS Kids, WGBH' New Augmented Reality Math App Gets Kids Moving

PBS Kids and Boston-based public broadcasting station WBGH are testing the waters in the nascent space of augmented reality with a recently released free math app for the iPhone. FETCH! LUNCH RUSH is designed to help children in the six to eight-year-old age range improve their arithmetic skills.

The app uses augmented reality, which is a technology that overlays virtual data or images over the real world, to enhance teaching math.

To play the game, you have to print out pieces of paper showing special augmented reality markers.
