Why Brands Need to Pay Attention to Augmented Reality Now More Than Ever
While online shopping enables people to make purchases anywhere, being able to visualize the product in a physical space is crucial, whether it’s the ability to try on a pair of glasses or match a set of throw pillows to your couch. In fact, even with the rise of online shopping, the ability to see, touch and feel products is one of the top reasons consumers choose to shop in stores versus online. Augmented reality done correctly has the power to change that.

Augmented Reality smartphone dongle bids the tape measure farewell
Just when we thought tapeless tape measures would be the year’s pinnacle of innovation in measuring devices, along comes a breakthrough that more or less gets rid of the measure to boot. The Arrim One purports to be the world’s first “professional” Augmented Reality measuring device — a small laser emitter which connects to a smartphone to size up straight lines, circles and angles, and shows those measurements in your AR view of the world. A Kickstarter to fund the project is hurtling towards its US$20,000 target.
