AR is capable enough to offer an immersive experience to customers, which is more convincing and real-time offering a new pedestal to the brands using which they can sell their products more proficiently.

Understanding Products

Connecting the products with the customers is the major area where AR can prove to be an asset for brands. The biggest drawback that keeps many customers away from online shopping is the inability to evaluate the product due to lack of availability of touch and feel option. Customers lack the ability to correctly imagine and evaluate the products as per their specific need.

This is where AR comes into action. Leveraging AR technology creatively, brands can now convince and impress their customers to buy products. Several brands like Amazon, Naykaa etc. have already started imagining the possible uses of AR.

The most updated example of a brand that is using AR technology is Lenskart, which allows the buyers to try on their glasses before actually buying them.

Same Way, we have also recently developed an App called Ring Try On App which allows the user to try out the Rings on their hand. The user just needs to simply click the picture of their hand and that’s it. The app will do the image processing and place the ring accurately on your finger.

Virtual Reality 360 Videos

Initially promoted by Google’s Street View, VR 360 videos are also becoming a popular digital marketing strategy drawing more views. Facilitating this technique, several leading brands especially in the real estate industry, are adopting AR to win the trust of their prospects.

Apart from real estate almost every industry brands have equal opportunity to leverage the benefits of Augment Reality to lure and deliver a real-time look and feel of the product and services to their potential customers.

Hotels can display their 360 Videos of facilities on site. These videos are already streaming on YouTube and earning loads of views and catapulting the overall business of multiple brands by convincing their customers to take action through real-time videos which has already become an improved and much needed new tool of the arsenal of Digital Marketing.
