• Stickiness: Increased activation and experience time in spatials drive adoption and retention of users

Video content is an additional feature to existing no-code template inventory: 3D models, images, hotspots, audio and text. Video content type can be enabled with subscription to the AR Content Package offering at $1,200/month or as an A-la-Carte content item at $250/month. Heavily requested by early adopters and pilot projects, the video template is a significant addition to the ARway advertising inventory.

Full Occlusion

AR experiences and content must be in harmony with real world objects with an unobstructed field of view to create truly immersive experiences. With latest breakthroughs in ARway's computer vision capabilities, objects located in the physical world will not be blocked or occluded by digital AR content. This latest version of occlusion eliminates edge cases and variation in physical surroundings to provide an enhanced visitor experience. Mobile devices powered by ARway can track planes, surfaces, edges and light to guide visitors with improved accuracy and no distortions.

About ARway Corp 

ARway is a no-code spatial computing platform for the real-world Metaverse. It enables AR-enhanced indoor navigation and wayfinding solutions for large, multi-purpose venues enabled by marker-based tracking using QR codes. Visitors can access a venue map by scanning a QR code with their smartphone upon entering the venue to navigate to any Point of Interest (POI) with step by step directions, learn information about those POIs, and interact with rich AR content and experiences along the way.

The ARway offering has an unlimited number of use cases for augmenting physical spaces in the metaverse, consisting of indoor navigation with AR activations to improve the visitor experience in large and complex spaces. With value propositions spanning multiple industries and use cases, ARway leverages Nextech's 3D/AR technology solutions to new substantial markets, for use by creators, brands, and companies.

The ARway Platform Includes:

Web Creator Platform

The Web-Based Creator Platform provides 'advanced' authoring capabilities compared to the mobile app, including the ability for creators to upload their own OBJ/GLB files, and create their own 3D objects. Placing content in a large area using only mobile app required the user to physically be in the specific location which was unscalable. The web studio allows the user to place and author content remotely and at scale.

Mobile App

With the ARway mobile app, anyone can spatially map their location within minutes using their smartphone, and populate it with interactive 3D content, augmented reality wayfinding, audio, text, images, and more. Nextech AR provides several pre-loaded 3D objects which creators can leverage to populate their metaverse.

The SDK features the latest and greatest of the ARway mobile app.
