In continuation to my last post, I finally got some time today to continue work on some examples for Augmented Reality using FLARToolKit and PaperVision3D. One thing that I wanted to try was augmenting flex components, and after working on it for some time, I learned that its possible to augment Flex components, but with the current implementation of FLARToolKit its not possible to interact with the component.

PaperVision3D lets you create a Material instance of type MovieMaterial, this can latter be added as the child to the Plane on which you would want to project your Flex component. When working with PaperVision3D, the instance creation starts with BasicView and ends with the Plane, and this is how the chain looks, BasicView -> Scene -> ViewPort -> Plane -> Material.

If you wish to try out the demo, firstly get the marker PDF printed and then go here. Below is the source code attached to explore and play around.
