Non uniform scale

We now allow a non-uniform scale in the

transform specification. This is represented as a

dictionary with the scales factors for the "x", "y"

and "z" axis.

Example:

"scale":{ "x": 2.0, "y": 1.0, "z": 3.0 }

User location anchor

The geo POI anchor element has been extended in order to support POIs tied to user location. This feature is useful in case of experience domes.Example: "anchor": { "geolocation": "user" }

Reference image linking

● Make it easier for the Layar to track reference images at

various zoom ranges

● Attach augments to a 3D object that consists of multiple

planar surfaces
