Augmented reality is not a "technology of the future"...it has arrived. Retail is one of the categories that will be wise to leverage its power early and often. 

Today, eCommerce is a $3.5 trillion business and is projected to be worth $4.9 trillion by 2021. If you sell products online, you already know that competition is fierce and every vendor is looking for an edge. Science suggests you’d be likely to find that edge through your customer’s visual experience. After all, 90% of what our brains process is visual.

There’s a good chance you’ve seen a 3D rendered image today.  Whether you’re watching animated cartoons, flipping through a magazine, viewing billboards on your morning commute, or scrolling through social media on your phone, you’re likely to come across images created by the process known as 3D rendering. In fact, 3D rendered images have become an important form of visual content for marketers, advertisers, content producers, and others.

Deciding whether or not to take the plunge with interactive 3D visuals can be a daunting process. Starting with a pilot is often the right first step.      For companies that are new to 3D, it can feel like you are wading into unfamiliar territory.   Questions arise: How do we know this will work for our business? Will we be able to increase our conversion rates and web traffic? Are we in a position to fulfill an increased number of orders?

You may be asking yourself,  “What gives? I’ve been watching movies in 3D for over 20 years—performance is an issue with 3D?”
