ArmorActive provides augmented reality at sporting goods store - ユタ州 メガストアのScheelsスポーツ用品店舗内でAR iPad-KIOSK

ユタ州 メガストアのScheelsスポーツ用品店舗内で、買い物客に拡張現実の技術を使用したiPad用アプリケーションが設置された。アイテムを選んで、ARでアイテムがオーバーレイ表示されるようになっているようだ。撮影した写真は、自分や友人にメールなどで送ることができるようになっている。1日に250~400のメールがおくられているとのこと。
大掛かりな機器ではく、このような簡単な装置であれば店舗側もレンタルなどで気軽に利用できそうだ。

  

Sporting goods retailer Scheels recently installed an ArmorActive iPad kiosk in its Sandy, Utah, megastore, providing shoppers a taste of augmented reality.

According to a press release, the kiosk consists of an ArmorActive iPad kiosk mount and stand, located across from a scenic backdrop and hand-held mini green screens. The iPad itself is secured with ArmorActive's Evolve enclosure, while power-backup solutions were also implemented into the stand to ensure the iPad will run throughout all business hours.
