Use augmented reality to distort real world surfaces as if they were made of water. Add waves and raindrops to any flat vertical or horizontal surfaces. watAR is great for creating unique images and videos to share. Or you can just have fun trying the effects on different surfaces around you. Highlights: • Add waves and rain effects to the real world surfaces around you using AR. watAR's unique AR really makes it look like the surface is being distorted! • Fine grained control over wave and rain effects. Create everything from a light drizzle to a downpour. • Interact with the water effect on your screen by touching and dragging. • Capture ready to share images and videos of the water effect in action. • Scale the water effect up to epic sizes! • Use your hands, feet, or anything else to physically interact with the water effect (note that this requires a device with a LiDAR sensor and you must enable the "interactive surface" option) • Adjust lighting and optionally enable "foreground occlusion" so that the water effect blends into the world (note that foreground occlusion requires a device with a LiDAR sensor) So give watAR a try and let us know if you create anything cool using it!
Rememory
Capture, edit, and share immersive 3D videos that bring your memories to life. Experience content from any angle and even recreate performances in your own space. Non-LiDAR devices can also view these spatial videos.
- Record volumetric videos with LiDAR
- Edit 3D videos in AR
- View spatial videos from any angle
- Share 3D content with friends
- Recreate performances in 3D
- Capture photos/videos of AR content

Rememory is a next-generation platform for shooting, editing, viewing, and sharing volumetric video (three-dimensional video in space and time). It creates a new place for video experiences where you can capture and save recordings, performances, and everyday discoveries in 3D, which until now could only be captured in 2D. In addition to creating your own spatial video contents and sharing them with your friends and family, you can also enjoy the future experience of recreating your favorite artists' performances in 3D at home. ■Shoot with LiDAR-equipped devices! With LiDAR-enabled devices, you can shoot volumetric videos (spatio-temporal stereoscopic videos) with Rememory. Enjoy capturing performances, spatial messages, pets, and idea videos, and publish or send them to your friends. ■3D video editing with AR! Rememory's volumetric video can be easily edited in AR. Create your original spatial video by cloning yourself, playing back time, or cropping a part of the video. ■Non-LiDAR devices can also watch volumetric videos! If your device is not a LiDAR device, you can still experience the volumetric videos published on Rememory. Please find the content you are interested in from the top of the app. ■Watch the content from any angle you want. Rememory displays volumetric videos in AR, so you can view the content not only from the front, but also from various angles. ■Take photos and record videos of the content You can take a photo or record a video of the volumetric video you are watching with AR. Create new 2D contents by taking photos of them together.
