La Augmented reality platform Augment makes it easy to configure, manage and view 3D AR content. Companies can thus easily access the various benefits of this technology. This platform is broken down into three parts.
The Augment Manager software allows you to manage and share 3D models. Augment Desktop allows you to preview and configure 3D models before experiencing them in augmented reality. Finally, the Augment smartphone application allows viewing of 3D models in augmented reality on an iOS or Android device.
Thanks to Augment, businesses can use AR to allow their customers to try products at home before making a purchase. This increases the number of purchases, but also reduces the number of returns.

For its part, Fnac used Augment to develop an augmented reality feature within the Fnac eCommerce mobile application. The University of Michigan is also using the service to teach digital design to students. We can cite the SEB group, which uses technology to present its products such as the Cookeo.
When it comes to marketing, Augment offers its customers to replace their traditional printed brochures with interactive and engaging augmented reality experiences for the consumer. Fun and innovative, such experiences are very convincing and improve the brand image.
Augmented reality can also be used for product design and the creation of prototypes. This technology can be used to visualize the design of a product before the production phase. Here again, Augment's services make it possible to use this innovative technique.
