One year ago, junaio introduced the capability to combine Augmented Reality and image recognition. The just released junaio 3.0 takes this another step forward towards making the “Augmented World” around us come alive in every sense. The new “SCAN” function scans everything: pictures, QR codes and even product barcodes. Hit the “SCAN” button and point you camera at whatever it is you wish to get information on, provided it can be found in one of junaios channels, databases or connected partner platforms. Scan a painting to get information about the artist a product barcode to get relevant consumer information or even a 3D user manual and scan a food item to try a new recipe for a good meal. “We are using the very objects around us as markers to get virtual information”, says Peter Meier, metaios CTO. » Scan The World With The New Junaio 3.0 Augmented Reality Browser
