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.
