EVOLVE MAGAZINE
Business and Professional Magazine

We hope you received and are enjoying the November 2016 issue of the Daytona Regional Chamber of Commerce's EVOLVE Business and Professional Magazine!  This issue is chock full of useful tips and special insights on how to make the most of technology in your business.

Some of our readers have encountered a technical glitch using the LARA Augmented Reality app to view the augmented reality objects embedded in a number of the pages of the magazine.  If you are one of those readers, here is some help:
  • Instructions on how to download and use the app on your Android or Apple device are included on pages 7 and 13 of EVOLVE.
  • In most cases, when you point your device's camera on the LARA-enhanced graphics, you will immediately see the app scanning the image and, within a few seconds, the image will come to life with 3D graphics, sound, and/or video! You can adjust your view by moving your device in different directions or by moving it closer to and further from the graphic on the page.
  • If instead of a 3D image you get a menu wheel (this will most likely happen on page 26), just tap the video camera icon and let the app do the rest!
  • You can check out the other icons on the menu wheel too, which lead you to the EVOLVE Facebook page, the digital version of evolve, and the EVOLVE media kit.
We hope you enjoy EVOLVE!  We love to get feedback and ideas from our readers, so feel free to reach out to us!
