Aru Majiro - Mascot of ARmagic

Good morning everyone. Have a good weekend? I found a couple more resources to add to the previous list of Augmented Reality developer tools, kits, APIs etc.

iPhone ARKit: an objective C kit for making augmented reality apps for iPhone; API modeled after MapKit. http://github.com/zac/iphonearkit/
ARmagic: a Windows-based authoring tool using ARToolKit libraries to aid in creation of marker-based augmented reality applications. http://www.i-t-business.com/ar-chudoku/index.php?pi=top [JP]
