Your product, everywhere

If you have products you sell, AR can be invaluable. Your sales rep can walk into a client’s clean room and show the small amount of space needed for your latest innovation. There’s no need to drag large capital equipment around to trade shows. Just have your presenter on stage show a virtual version on the screen as they walk around the new device.

If you need to keep the competition from seeing your products, you can use AR to ensure that the image is only viewable when the camera can see a special image. For instance, you can send out a flyer to a customer, with directions to hold the card with the special image up to the AR tool on your website–this is similar to using a QR code. Then, the 3D image displays on the screen of your customer’s device. Your competition cannot launch the tool without the special card and image. This flyer or one-sheet approach can work as a brochure or have your sales rep use it as an intriguing ‘leave-behind’ that customers can use to educate other stakeholders in their organization. Best of all, it doesn’t require a download and is easy to launch.

See data in new ways

While AR is ideal to showcase new products, it’s also perfect to bring data to life in an engaging way. Charts and graphs can be mind-numbing, but when they are expanded with additional context and visuals, then your audience becomes involved and your message becomes memorable.

For instance, make a splash with your hurricane wind data set and walk through the hurricane to point out the eye of the storm.

Showing medical imagery can be larger than life using AR. Imagine showing an MRI or a CT scan of a patient, while you slide through the layers of the brain. Or show where a tumor in the lung is situated in a 3D rotating view. Even scanning electron microscopes can show each layer of the tissue – just a swipe of the finger and you can highlight each layer.

Transporting goods to customers can be complex. Coordinating movements and solving problems that deal with procurement, distribution and maintenance can be cumbersome to train new sales reps on and explain to customers. AR can show diverse shipping routes in an entirely new and unique way.

AR for product training

eLearning is another effective use for AR to help embed training with your teams or customers. Now your trainee can click a button to hide the shell of your product and see how it functions inside – all without having to alter an actual product. AR can even be embedded into a SCORM package in your LMS.

Your AR capability is waiting

AR uses your web camera and a simple website or small web app. Also, an AR tool can be hosted on the Apple or Android app stores, or placed in a sales enablement platform.
