Description

What exactly should we do about all that Digital Fashion/WEB3/Metaverse buzz? Most brands don't understand the value but want to do something because of the FOMO. We need to dispel the fog and explain 1) how these technologies can be applied in a simple language and 2) how to not just create a project but also connect it to the receiving of predictable results.

Join us as Dmitry Kornilov addresses:

- analysis of significant changes in consumer persona
- overlaying of audience behavior and technical opportunities
- finding viable Digital Fashion and Metaverse use-cases starting from virtual try-on and ending with in-game integrations
- integration of Digital Fashion and Metaverse projects into a cross-platform communication ecosystem, from online to offline
- analysis of Digital Fashion and Metaverse projects and connecting them to revenue growth

XR4EUROPE is a Pan-European association that federates all the XR professionals, organisations and initiatives to support the development of, promote and represent XR innovation, industry and creativity from Europe.

This European Not-For-Profit Association was created in May 2021, and is the result of the XR4ALL project supported by the European Commission’s H2020 programme which ran from December 2018 to August 2021. The founding members are former XR4ALL consortium members and European territorial clusters.

The aim of XR4Europe is to contribute to the development of XR in Europe. It is important to note that there are many private and public initiatives in Europe for the development of XR. These initiatives are positive, but the fragmentation of these supports does not allow sufficient resources to be mobilised for major structuring projects, whether in terms of technology, equipment or content.

In addition to providing appropriate services to its members, XR4Europe wants to contribute to reducing this fragmentation and to become an interlocutor of the sector with user companies and public authorities.

Augmented Reality Portals is a new way to fully surround users in a 360 and 3D digital world using their mobile phone. AR Portals combine the “immersiveness” of virtual reality and the ubiquity of the smartphone to create a tool for brands and creators alike to develop magical experiences for everyone.

Take your users on a journey of your factory, have them walk around a virtual store that throws the laws of gravity out the window, or have them go on an interactive adventure while fully immersed in a digital world. These are just a few ideas of what you can do with AR Portals.

AR Portals can be created for Social AR (Snap Lens Studio and Meta's Spark AR Studio) and for WebAR and we'll talk about the pros and cons of both options.

This talk will go over the most frequent use cases for AR Portals, a high-level technical overview, and best practices in creating your own. We will also showcase some of the best AR Portals out there. If you're interested in bringing magic to the world with AR, then I can't wait to share this talk with you.
