<\/a>Shazam has partnered with Zappar, the world leader in augmented reality on mobile devices, to deliver the code-scanning technology behind Shazam Codes as well as the platform’s immersive and expressive short form mobile experiences. Shazam AR works with all iOS (Shazam v10.5) or Android (Shazam v7.5) devices.<\/p>\n
\u201cOne of the things missing from augmented reality for advertisers has been a frictionless way to deliver these experiences at scale,\u201d said Shazam CRO Greg Glenday. \u201cBecause Shazam has such a massive install base, and consumers are already accustomed to using the app for discovery, we have now solved that problem. The possibilities for a brand to bring their products to life or make their advertising more engaging are quite literally only limited by the imagination.\u201d<\/p>\n

Across the U.S. and starting in April, users who visually Shazam in-store creative will have the chance to play a fun, co-branded AR interactive memory game.<\/p>\n \u201cWe are excited to collaborate with Shazam on the launch of their augmented reality in-app functionality,\u201d said Michelle Cater, Beam Suntory\u2019s Senior Director of Commercial Marketing. \u201cWith more than 150 years of experience producing premium tequila, we have constantly innovated throughout the years to reach consumers in new and exciting ways. This breakthrough technology offers an accessible, immersive platform with which to engage in a rewarded gamification experience at the point of purchase leading up to Cinco de Mayo. Sauza\u00ae Tequila and Hornitos\u00ae Premium Tequila should effectively break through the Cinco de Mayo advertising clutter thanks to this exciting partnership.\u201d<\/p>\n Building on Shazam’s visual recognition funtionality<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Since launching visual-recognition functionality in 2015, Shazam has partnered with brands and artists to seamlessly connect its users to innovative custom content. AR marks the next huge step forward in this visual capability and offering. AR has become a cornerstone to engage users in immersive experiences and allow brands to reach audiences through a compelling, interactive new medium.<\/p>\n \u201cWe knew we were on to something big when we released visual image recognition in 2015,\u201d said Shazam CEO Rich Riley. \u201cWith the rapid rise of augmented reality, it is a natural evolution for Shazam to be a first-mover in delivering AR at scale.\u201d<\/p>\n Image over the headline.-<\/strong> Shazam’s AR solution in action.\u00a0\u00a9 Shazam.<\/span><\/p>\n Related Eastwindmarketing links<\/span>:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Shazam launches 1st scaled AR platform for brands (2017) -video-<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n Shazam new imaging and beaconing services (2015) -video-<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n Shazam enters data and branded content business<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n Related Eastwindmarketing links<\/span> (old platform):<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Shazam, to launch image and QR recognition as well as beaconing features<\/span> Mindshare and Shazam get allied to evaluate the ROI of sound in Ad campaigns<\/span> Shazam, one of the world\u2019s most popular apps, today announced the launch of a massively scaled augmented reality (AR) platform for its brand partners, artists and hundreds of millions of global users.
