How can brands supercharge their apps with augmented reality?

Find out how Audi did it at the Monetising Mobile conference next month.

'Monetising Mobile: Next Generation Search and Discovery' will explain how mobile phone users can use speech, images, barcodes, gesture and touch to discover content.

The event takes place at the Soho Hotel in London on Wednesday September 28th.

Tickets cost £189. Buy one now from katy.phillips@intentmedia.co.uk.

A key focus at the event will be augmented reality, which was used by Audi inside its Le Mans app, built by Somo.

To access the feature, users download a printed marker from Audi UK's website, and point the camera at it to see a virtual car appear, with hotspots that can be tapped to bring up more data.
