     39 <p>The world was a dismal and featureless place before rich media became
     40 prevalent. Remember Gopher? We don't, either. For your app to become
     41 part of your users' lives, give them a way to put their lives into it.
     42 Using the on-board cameras, your application can enable users to augment what
     43 they see around them, make unique avatars, look for zombies around the corner,
     44 or simply share their experiences.</p> 
     45 
     46 <p>This class gets you clicking fast with some super-easy ways of
     47 leveraging existing camera applications. In later lessons, you dive deeper
     48 and learn how to control the camera hardware directly.</p>
