AR: Toy For Geeks or Tool For Brands?

Description:

Fancy VR headsets might be toys for early adopters, but AR-capable devices will soon outnumber TVs. When ad creative Jules Vizard started to experiment with AR filters, he soon racked up a billion TikTok views, picking up fans like Lizzo and footballer Ian Wright. But how do brands and businesses grab a slice of this action, and what is the real value when they do?
First-of-its-kind research with System1 looks deeper than vanity metrics - likes and views - to measure the brand impact of AR that marketers really care about. Discover the power and the pitfalls of AR and what it means for you.
