This group is dedicated to the principals of the Science Cafe movement. Its purpose is to expose everyone to interesting new science, to get those burning questions answered, and to bring …

Hello, I'm @sidgabriel, the organizer of ARDevMob: The San Francisco Bay Area and Silicon Valley Augmented Reality Meetup group. Augmented reality is a human interface metaphor. Unlike the "desktop metaphor" which implies a computerized representation of a desk, files and folders, "Augmented Reality" implies that computer science can inform and extend everything in our visual, auditory and cognitive perception of reality.

We are about getting together and having fun. Dinners, movies, bowling, mini-golf, museums, anything fun that you can do with friends in the Bay Area.
