Transforming location-based AR experiences through the web with Mattercraft and Immersal

Join us as we celebrate the launch of our partnership with Immersal and explore how web-based technologies are revolutionising location-based AR experiences, making them more accessible and scalable than ever before. 

Connell Gauld, CTO at Zappar, and May Hertonen, Head of Developers Community at Immersal, will demonstrate how to map any location while maintaining ownership of your data in the cloud and how you can create scalable location-based AR experiences that work seamlessly across platforms and devices, directly on the web—without the need for complex approvals or third-party control.

 

What You'll Learn:

  • How the web is transforming location-based AR experiences for broader accessibility and scalability.
  • The role of spatial mapping and visual positioning systems in creating precise and reliable AR content.
  • Techniques for building AR experiences using Mattercraft and Immersal that work seamlessly across iOS and Android.
