Advertising played an essential role in transforming sports into one of the most profitable industries in the world. While more and more brands have aligned themselves with sports teams, events or organisations, fans consciously (or unconsciously) ignore the noise of traditional forms of advertising, such as 30-second TV spots or printed materials. Marketers have to tackle a high level of boredom that audiences show for brands - that's where digital media and immersive technologies come into the...

One of the main challenges museums and science centres around the world are facing, is how to maintain attendance numbers and engagement. Younger audiences are clearly more and more difficult to attract, at least by “traditional” exhibits. This is where educational entertainment comes into play. AR is a relatively new technology, however, it has already begun revolutionising the way museums engage, educate [and entertain] their audiences. In today’s episode our CEO Alex, CTO Norbi and CPO Xava t...
AR and VR have existed for a long time, however, currently there’s quite a lot of phrases flying around in the industry, often causing serious confusion regarding these technologies. Mixed Reality is a relatively young term, but is the actual technology behind it in any way different from Augmented Reality, or it just a marketing play, a convenient way for certain companies to distinguish themselves from others by “owning” a phrase? What are the advantages of AR and MR compared to Virtual Realit...
INDE began as a digital agency called Appshaker in 2009, and walked into AR by accident. Ironically, our first project never happened as the technology wasn’t ready back then, but from that point onwards we turned the direction of the entire business, and Appshaker became almost purely an Augmented Reality development company. We were working on a project for National Geographic back in 2011 – that is when we came up with the initial concept of BroadcastAR, a standalone Augmented Reality system ...
We are excited to be part of this year’s edition of SHAPE, a Tech and Entertainment Expo sponsored by AT&T (Los Angeles, July 14-15), exploring the convergence of technology and entertainment.

This travel has helped us gain a deeper understanding on how an...
