We all know that … Information is KING.

Over the past few decades and with the advancements on the internet, people have more accessibility to information from around the world at their fingers tips.

But now people want more …

The future of information lies in the ability of a brand / product / service to provide information in real time. People would like to have the ability to be able to access information on the go.

The world as we know will soon change – everything around us will be surrounded with layers of information. Those who will use this technology will immensely benefit whilst others will be left behind.

Future Trends

The way forward …

Our latest technological offer is in the form of Augmented Reality applications – which creates the ability to provide layers of information in the real world to the user at the precise time that it is needed.

Augmented Reality integrates 3D objects into live video. Digital processing mixes real and virtual worlds together, in real time.

With Augmented Reality people will be able to see and experience a lot more than what they have been doing in the past.

We believe that in the near future, the entire world would be Augmented. If the information will not be made available in real time through Augmented Reality to a user – then it may not exist at all...

The concept of blending (augmenting) virtual data (information, rich media, and even live action) with what we see in the real world, for the purpose of enhancing our senses is indeed powerful. Augmented Reality is used to intensify the truth, boost accuracy, supplement the concrete, and add to the existent.

Augmented Reality is the enrichment of physical experience with virtual information and interaction.

Augmented Reality (AR) simply put adds graphics and sounds to the natural world as it exists.

What is Augmented Reality?

Augmented Reality integrates 3D objects into live video. The video is digitally processed and “augmented” with the 3D components.

In other words, this digital processing mixes real and virtual worlds together in real time.

Augmented Reality in Travel & Tourism

Augmented Reality literally brings the world together.

Tourists and travelers can be provided with in-depth information of a countries culture, heritage, do’s and don'ts. Through Augmented Reality a visitor could even experience a country’s history and be far more involved in it than by just merely reading a book.

Augmented Reality in Day to Day

We believe that eventually the whole world would be Augmented. Everything would come with an additional layer of information.

The internet allowed for one to experience and interact with the world while sitting in the comfort of one’s chosen surroundings, but that has also made us less social.

Augmented Reality brings together the best of both worlds and is the future.

And the Future is Now !

"Mobile handsets are in an excellent position to become the primary digital channel for providers of banking and related financial services in emerging markets” – Berg Insight.

74 percent of online retailers in the US are planning for m-commerce, according to Shop.org/Forrester Research (June 2010)

More than 1 in 10 mobile subscribers will use m-ticketing in 2014, estimates Jupiter Research (April 2010)

“Mobile is an annualized run rate of over US$1billion. This means that the people are accessing our products and services through their mobile phones are adding a billion dollars annually to our existing revenue streams. Clearly this is the future of search on the Internet. More people in more countries are coming online from smart phones. Our mobile search queries have grown five times over the last couple of years,” – Jonathan Rosenberg, SVP, Google (October 2010).
