Benefits of ARR
- Be first in line for discounts and special offers
Find out what offers are available in a shop by simply pointing your telephone at it. Products with discounts that match your interests instantly appear in front of you. There’s no need to sort through countless shelves and racks to get exactly what you need. - Upload your thoughts into augmented reality
ARROUND lets users transfer their photos, videos and messages in augmented reality. Augmented reality means other people can see your messages in a specific place and time. - Build an audience
Have you got an offer that’s just too good to refuse? ARROUND offers a great way to get people in your vicinity interested in your proposal. Just put your offer into augmented reality, and people who are interested will see it! - Find out who was here before you
You arrive at a location and want to see who’s already been there. ARROUND not only lets you immerse yourself in the world of ideas where you are right now, you can also see and message the people who were here before you. - Find exactly what you need
Use ARROUND to avoid missing out on what you’re interested in. For example, you can create a search query for Yellow Jacket. Next time you are near a place where there is a yellow jacket on sale you’ll get a notification on your phone. - Inspire the world around you
Use ARROUND to share your view of the world with your friends. It’s not just about keeping a diary of your life, it’s about engaging the people around you. Share your joy of life with the world and make new friends. - Help fight crime
Are you an eyewitness to something suspicious? Make a photo, video or post a message. Put your post on ARROUND and help keep others in the loop. You can even do this anonymously. - Meet interesting people
Would you like to meet people with the same interests as you? In ARROUND, people meet each other based on their actual interests, lifestyles and where they socialize. One of the main ideas of ARROUND is to find the missing connections between people. Selecting your interests will show you the people nearby who are just like you! - Stand out from the crowd
Create your own calling card that can be seen by anyone who checks you out using the ARROUND camera or through augmented reality glasses - Retail stores
ARROUND enables shopes to create targeted advertisements. For example, if using augmented reality advertising is placed on the sign of a sign or in a shop window, when the user's ARROUND camera is directed at the sign, the user sees the AR advert. The advertising message will vary based on the profile and needs of the user. For example, if it is a pharmacy, a young mother will see an offer for diapers, while a middle-aged man might see a discount for vitamins. - Shopping malls
ARROUND users can see contextual augmented reality adverts on the signs of shops or on advertising spaces placed around the mall. They can also use AR navigation — cool animated characters can guide them to the best deals! This is an entirely new way for advertisers and to draw attention to their products and engage clients and when they are close to the point of sale! - Sports events
At sports events, ARROUND users can receive advertising information, navigation details around the sports venue, live info on the match or game stats, watch streamed replays, as well as take advantage of special features (for example, take selfies with the team mascot or put themselves in the background of one of the highlights). We allow organizers to expand their limited real-world ad inventory into augmented reality! - Timeline
Let’s build a picture of what’s happening around us right here and now together. By creating content on ARROUND, your thoughts, memories, reviews, photos and videos can live into the future. In the years to come, your story will become a part of the place where you created it. The Timeline is a special setting for displaying rounds that let you view the events from the time you are interested in. This is this one of the most epic features of ARROUND, letting users travel through time to see all the different events that were held at the same location
