Wonderbook is an augmented reality peripheral for the PlayStation 3 console. The user holds a physical book-like object and the software displays content on the television's screen.

==Development== Wonderbook was announced during the Sony press conference at the 2012 Electronic Entertainment Expo. It is an augmented reality book which is designed to be used in conjunction with the PlayStation Move and PlayStation Eye. The Wonderbook features computer vision techniques developed jointly with the Computer Vision group at Oxford Brookes University (an offset of the Torr Vision Group). Marketed under the tagline "One book, a thousand stories", it was released together with the launch title Book of Spells in time for the 2012 holiday season.
