Our latest app, VisitAR, is now available on the Apple App Store.
VisitAR helps you navigate your way through the streets of Manchester, the UK’s second city, to the HQ of Corporation Pop.
But VisitAR isn’t just another mapping application. Using Apple’s ARKit you can view your current location in a 3D augmented reality map, projected on to any surface in the real world. The map shows your location in relation to Corporation Pop and allows you to easily make a visual connection between the streets around you and the models you see projected in the augmented reality scene. You can even check the realtime availability of parking spaces in car parks nearby.
At any point you can tap on Corporation Pop HQ. This transforms the map view in to a self-guided 3D augmented reality tour of our studio. Once inside, you can meet the Corporation Pop team and read each of our biographies by tapping on our avatars. If you want to arrange a meeting with us you just tap any of the phones in our virtual studio and if you want to view our showreel take a seat on the virtual sofa and watch it in glorious technicolour.
VisitAR is a prototype application designed to demonstrate how augmented reality can be used to enhance visitor experiences by making both the journey and the destination an engaging interactive experience.
If you have an iPhone 7 or later you can download VisitAR on the iTunes store.
