• Mobile, including Augmented Reality: Mobile services that are building on the Wikimedia and Europeana API, such as packaging and conceptualizations of content, mash-ups with check-in services, augmented reality overlays, support for mobile upload to Wikimedia that control/compare/connect the uploaded media to Europeana's metadata etc.
