Wenn das Foto in der digitalen Welt wichtig genug ist, um es zu drucken, ist der Videoclip, den wir die Story in jedem Bild nennen, genauso wichtig. Für Fotografen: • Nimm die Active Pixxs gleichzeitig wie Deine Fotos mit Deiner vorhandenen Ausrüstung und Deinem aktuellen Workflow auf. Jedes Foto, das Du aufnimmst, kann zu einem Active Pixx werden. • Active Pixxs sind nur sichtbar für Kunden, die Deine Fotos kaufen. Wie die App funktioniert: Die Magie passiert, wenn unsere Software das gedruckte Bild durch ein mathematisches Modell analysiert Es gleicht das Modell gegen die Bilder in der Datenbank von Active Pixx ab. Wenn eine Übereinstimmung gefunden wird, beginnt ein digitales Video auf Deinem Smartphone oder Tablet. Bitte beachte, dass unsere App nur mit gedruckten Bildern arbeitet, die Active Pixx Videos aktiviert haben. Active Pixx arbeitet mit iOS 12.0 oder höher und höher Active Pixxs funktionieren am besten mit einem starken Internet oder einer Wi-Fi-Verbindung.

The Interactive Merch Tour app enables you to unlock curated content on enabled images, signage, and product packaging. 1. Download the free app scanner or scan the corresponding QR code 2. Scan the enabled image using this app and see the image come to life! Requirements to use the app: The Interactive Tour Merch App works with rear-facing camera Apple devices that use iOS 14 or above. Also, the interactive images work best with a strong internet or Wi-Fi connection. How the App Works: The magic happens when our software analyzes the printed image by creating a mathematical model based on shapes, lines, proportions, colors and other elements. It then matches the model against images already in the app database. When a match is found what you see is what looks like a 3D, mapped digital video playing on top of a print…living in the physical world. **We developed this app for people that received a physical copy of a corresponding image . The app will NOT work on any other image.
