The ability to use an augmented reality system to guide us into a room is something that many have been waiting for years. When Google introduced Google glass so long ago we all imagined we could take it to a shopping mall to tell us where a specific store is, or show us offers and discounts on the places around us… time has passed and we are still far from enjoying something like this in everyday life.
In Tangar, a Swedish company, they have not given up, and they are now showing what they can do with their technology. In this video you can see a demonstration of how augmented reality can be used when shopping in a supermarket:
Tangar was founded by technological entrepreneurs and RA enthusiasts with long experience in interior positioning and 3D space. They want their product to simplify everyone’s daily life by helping people with and without disabilities. To do this, they convert the rooms in each environment into millions of points, creating a searchable digital representation of the area with super high precision.
Tangar allows you to display the information you need in the right place at the right time at the right time, which will help show the way anywhere, whether it’s a market or a warehouse. They connect the Tangar Point Cloud with the information in the customer’s systems, creating rich and powerful applications.
The technology already has it, now it is necessary for manufacturers to be interested in it so that we can see glasses that use the Tanager system to guide us everywhere.
