Ferrari creates immersive showroom experience via augmented reality.
Ferrari has introduced an app in its Australian and Japanese showrooms that allows car buyers to instantly customize a floor model. The showroom app uses 3D tracking software and the tablet’s camera to identify first which model the customer is looking at, and then which distinct feature, like wheels or color. The customer can then browse all available options and superimpose them onto the real-time image of the car they’re looking at in person. When they’re done customizing the car, customers can capture their configuration in a 15 second video that’s designed to be shared on social media.
