About Augmented Reality and the Layar App
Through a technology known as “augmented reality,” Promo Marketing is able to make any page in its magazine scannable by smartphone or tablet, using an app called Layar. Once scanned with the Layar app, you’ll be able to see and interact with any augmented pages in the magazine. Previously hidden content will reveal itself in the app’s window. Videos will play, extra articles will appear, company websites will be accessible at the tap of a finger. Essentially, Promo Marketing is now packed with even more useful, business-building information.
To get the app, search for the Layar app in your smartphone’s app store or visit www.layar.com/download.
