Problem
Creating engaging augmented reality (AR) experiences often requires specialized skills and resources, limiting accessibility for individuals and businesses. Existing platforms may lack the tools for easy content creation, publishing, and distribution of AR experiences.
Solution
PictoryTale offers two AR platforms: SnicSnac and Volories. SnicSnac is an AR platform that allows users to create AR scenes and videos by combining virtual elements in a real-world setting for storytelling. Users can access a library of virtual props organized in "movie-packs" to enhance their creations. Qualified content partners can publish and share their content, including videos, 3D objects, and animations, through the platform or other social media channels. Volories is an AR platform for aggregating, publishing, and experiencing location-based mixed reality content. It enables users to engage with mixed reality stories, tours, concerts, and educational experiences tied to specific locations. Content partners can publish mixed reality experiences that users can access by visiting physical locations, scanning QR codes, or using NFTs.
Target Audience
SnicSnac targets individual users and content creators interested in creating and sharing AR-enhanced stories and videos, while Volories targets media companies, tour agencies, and educators looking to publish location-based mixed reality experiences.
