A video-conferencing device for presenting augmented images that includes at least one interface, a network and a computer processor programmed to receive first information identifying a scene via the at least one interface. The computer processor also detects whether the scene contains at least one marker and identifies a location of each detected marker within the scene. In response to determining that the scene contains a first marker and based on the location of the first marker, the computer processor then augments the portion of the scene containing the first marker with second information. The computer processor then transmits the augmented scene to at least one external device via the network.
