Augmented Reality
“Eventually all countries, will have AR experiences every day, almost like eating three meals a day. It will become that much a part of you.”
Tim Cook, Apple CEO
Keeping up with technology is key for a brand’s marketing to stand out. The availability of augmented reality in mobile browsers has exponentially grown its adoption rate. It is a proven format for increasing engagement time, more immersive interactivity, and a stronger emotional connection with users.
If you’re new to AR, in a nutshell, augmented reality is the placement of video, 3D or other digital asset in your mobile device’s camera. It’s as if the digital content is there in the room with you. You can move and look around and look within a 360° experience. The immersive qualities of AR are what drive its long engagement times, strong connections with users, and increased conversion rates.
