ChineseCubes is a fun, game-like system for learning the Chinese language. It combines the use of physical elements with computer technology and augmented reality (AR) in such a way that key aspects of speaking, writing, and translating the Chinese language are made easy and enjoyable. By placing one or more of the Chinese Character Cubes with the AR marker facing the webcam, you can select from onscreen buttons to either hear the Chinese word perfectly spoken, see its English translation appear onscreen above the cube, or view an easy-to-follow animation of the specific stroke order to use when writing out the Chinese characters. There are two primary onscreen modes. Learning Mode follows a specific progression through the Chinese characters while tracking your progress. Freestyle Mode is a looser, creative approach in which one freely combines cubes in order to see, hear, translate, and understand the results. Playing with ChineseCubes allows you to master 200 commonly used Chinese characters, the combination of which generates up to 64,000 words and conversational phrases. The set includes everything you need - 40 Chinese Character Cubes, 5 Tutor Cubes, Webcam, Software Disc, Quickstart Guide, Writing Pad and Pen, and Learning Pad.
