How to increase retail footfalls using augmented reality?

Diwali holds great significance for individuals and families because of the meeting, greeting, lighting, decoration and all festivities involved. It holds great importance for businesses too, not just in terms of the prayers offered, but also because of the spike in demand that’s witnessed across sectors at this time of the year. It’s like Christmas in the US.

Now if you are a retail store owner and want to increase footfalls this Diwali what would you do? Advertising? PR? Invite a celeb? Well, ever thought of using augmented reality?

Augmented reality (AR) is a live, direct or indirect, view of a physical, real-world environment whose elements are augmented (or supplemented) by computer-generated sensory input such as sound, video, graphics or GPS data.

The technology can be used in different circumstances and it sure could be used to increase footfalls to your store during Diwali as well. Enclosed below is a video case study of how a Japanese Zoo using AR to increase footfalls to their place. It’s a great example of the possibilities that exist with AR.
