How can your business use AR?

We are not just talking about large organizations; XR can be affordable and has been used by companies of different sizes to boost their business.

- Reduce customer churn due to doubts about the suitability of your products
- Provide an interactive format to educate visitors
- Improve the online shopping experience
- Surprise (pleasantly) long-time customers

- Demonstrate to your customers that you are at the forefront of your market
What industries use augmented reality today?
Augmented reality is a powerful tool that can be applied in many ways, such as training employees, selling products, or providing consumers with a more engaging experience. You can find AR applied to a variety of fields, including retail, hospitality, education, and the arts. The opportunities for businesses to stand out from the competition are limitless!
Let’s see some examples of how companies are using augmented reality:

Whether you want to buy online or in-store, the IKEA app offers benefits to its users, allowing users to view their products in their own room, using augmented reality. Users can select anything from the store catalog and see how it will look scaled to their home.
Education
Medical students can use Microsoft HoloLens technology to learn about the human body using mixed reality. Students and clinicians can circulate through the bloodstream, isolate, magnify, and even walk inside human body parts.
Makeup & Beauty

Tourism
Both augmented reality and virtual reality have been used by tourist boards, hotel providers and tourist sites to enhance the travel experience with features such as virtual hotel tours, augmented reality tours and proximity-triggered XR information points or QR codes in places such as museums. .
Clothes
Amazon Try-on technology uses augmented reality to virtually fit shoes to users’ feet. It allows users to see exactly how the shoes would look on them. This way you can view the size, fit and cut of each garment before you pay.
