AR firm celebrates 1st birthday; parties with 6,000 partners.
Aurasma is one of the more visible firms in the AR space, and claims it has worked with over 6,000 firms in its first year including Universal Pictures UK, Budweiser and Bandai. It expects to pass the 10,000 milestone by 2013.
The tech runs as an app on iOS and Android smartphones and tablets, animating static content on device screens, racking up more than four million downloads across over 100 countries.
Jennifer Rapp, GM, Aurasma, said: "In the last year, augmented reality has moved beyond being a curiosity and has hit the mainstream.
"Not only are businesses leveraging Aurasma to connect with customers and build sticky brands, but everyday people are embracing Aurasma's in-app features to create their own virtual worlds, from launching personalised videos triggered by their holiday cards to creating engaging curricula at elementary schools."
