AugmentedEntiy, an augmented reality application for Android

The right Android setup for augmented reality is made of "camera preview" view that will sit on top of an OpenGL view with translucent background.
Camera motion
In augmented reality, the phone motion has to match the camera motion of then rendered 3D scene.
