Die App MetaPlayer verbindet mit Hilfe von Augmented-Reality-Technologie die reale mit der digitalen Welt und erweitert so Druckerzeugnisse, Abbildungen, Messewände, Maschinen, Geräte und Exponate etc. mit interaktiven Inhalten. MetaPlayer macht so 3D-Objekte, Videos, Animationen oder interaktive Inhalte auf dem Smartphone, Tablet oder Augmented-Reality-Brille nutzbar. Die digitale Erweiterung wird direkt über das Kamerabild angezeigt. Mit dem Demo-Heft (als PDF in der App enthalten) können Sie verschiedene beeindruckende Beispiele ausprobieren und die Möglichkeiten der Technologie erleben. Zahlreiche Beispiele warten auf Sie! Zoomen Sie sich ins Innere eines Wohnhauses oder öffnen Sie ein dreidimensionales Herz, um hineinzuschauen. MetaPlayer wurde von KIDS interactive entwickelt. Gerne unterstützen wir Sie beim Einsatz der App MetaPlayer oder der Entwicklung eines individuellen Augmented-Reality-Projektes auf Basis unserer Technologie-Frameworks.
