I have been looking at creating an augmented reality application. Can anyone suggest a preferred technology platform to start writing an application of this kind.
I would like this to be a desktop application and not a mobile application. Therefore I want to use a webcam with object recognition.
Thanks!

Building good AR & VR applications is incredibly difficult right now, though not because the development is hard. Game engines like Unity are surprisingly good for making AR & VR applications and they're relatively easy for developers to learn.
C#, C/C++, and Java are the most popular programming languages among AR developers, according to SlashData.
Augmented Reality app development costs vary greatly based on different app types: it ranges from $5,000–$10,000 for a simple demo app developed in 160 working hours to $300,000+ for a feature-rich, custom-built app that takes nine months and longer to develop.
FLARToolKit is another good place to look. It's free and uses flash + Actionsctript 3. gotoandlearn DOT com has a couple good video tutorial on how to use the library, I'd give you links to them but stackoverflow says I'm not special enough for more than 1 url.
