Best Augmented Reality Tools in 2018: Which Is The Right One for Your AR App?

by Adriana Cacoveanu on Jan 03 2018

“Build the next big thing in terms of AR apps!” Is this goal on top of your New Year's resolutions list? Well, then right now you must be wondering: “With so many tempting augmented reality tools out there to choose from, which one's best for my own AR solution?"

A frustratingly ambiguous answer could be:

"The one that best serves your AR app development needs."

Meaning that whatever AR platform you'll be choosing, it should:

  1. meet your project's requirements
  2. serve the goals that you will have set up for it

And yet, this “matching” of the AR libraries at your disposal with your project's specific development needs is your “mission” and yours only.

Nevertheless, we can still help you streamline your selection process.

How? By shortlisting 6 of the most popular augmented reality development tools in 2017 with a great potential to grow even more influential in 2018. 

Here they come:

1. Kudan AR

An augmented reality SDK that “pioneered” the network intelligent vision (bringing together AI and IoT).

And which sets itself apart from the other augmented reality tools in our shortlist here due to its robust single-camera SLAM.

In other words: Kudan AR supports mapping tracking and simultaneous localization.

Built for both iOS and Android-based apps, Kudan AR supports markerless tracking (meaning that it uses features such as edges, corners, and textures) and, moreover, it's designed to recognize an unlimited number of images.

Where do you add that it doesn't get “greedy” using too much of your app's memory to store its files and (big advantage!) it's significantly faster than other AR SDKs.

Summing up its key features and functionalities now:

  • 2D/3D Recognition in the same application
  • supports markerless tracking
  • supports Simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) tracking technology

2. Vuforia, By Far One of the Most Popular Augmented Reality Tools

Call it a "complete tool" for developing AR apps!

It practically “empowers” you to create any kind of AR solution for any type of device, any platform! A visually arresting augmented reality app or game “packed” with cutting-edge functionality. 

Yet, it does have its own shortcomings, too, the most “discouraging” one being that its free version comes with Vuforia watermarks and limited functionality. 

Even so, the balance between great features and innovative capabilities and shortcomings is titled so that it favours the first ones. Let us detail:

  • it's supercharged with smart terrain functionality for reconstructing a terrain and therefore a whole 3D map of the environment in real-time 

     
  • the same, above-mentioned functionality, will empower you (or your app development team) to create some fully interactive user experiences where the app's elements interact with the physical world

     
  • it's extended tracking feature enables your future AR app to deliver a 100% realistic visual experience even when the target elements are out of view (in other words users will be able to simultaneously engage themselves in the gameplay and still visualize the vehicles for instance)

     

And now summing up Vuforia's most notable features:

 

  • it comes with virtual buttons, which allow you to switch between various surfaces, which play the roles of your true-to-life, natural-looking touch screens

     
  • mixed reality and eyewear support (that's right, Microsoft HoloLens here included)

     
  • cloud recognition (and on-device, as well), meaning that it's capable to use either a local or a cloud database during the image recognition process 

     
  • Vuforia Object Scanner

     
  • it comes with Vumarks (Vuforia barcodes), which act both as data encoders and as markers

     
  • it's built to recognize both 2D and 3D objects

     
  • text recognition: Vuforia's designed to recognize over 100.000 words (and, moreover, you're enabled to use your own custom vocabulary, as well)

     

3. Wikitude

The third augmented reality development kit on our list is actually an “all-in-one” platform in fact. One which brings together:

Instant tracking + 3D markerless technology + Geo-location + Object/Image recognition and tracking

And all these top-notch AR features bundled up in one single AR app development kit can only mean 2 things:

 

  1. you get to build both marker AR mobile apps
  2. ... and location-based ones

     

Available for iOS, Android, and Glassware, Wikitude is one of those commercial augmented reality tools. It does come in a trial version, as well, but do expect it to “surprise” you with a series of limitations, such as its logo showing up in the cam view.

And now, let's go through its attention-worthy features and functionalities:

 

  • it provides you with Wikitude Studio, which makes AR app development a breeze, literally, since it requires no programming skills whatsoever: just drag the elements onto the studio screen and... put together your app 

     
  • Wikitude SDK is currently available for Android, iOS and the Glassware platform

     
  • on-device and cloud recognition 

     
  • instant (3D) tracking (it will display virtual objects and map out environments without using markers)

     
  • extended tracking 

     
  • geolocation support: your AR mobile app can get enhanced with location-based services, as well 

     

4. ARToolKit

ARToolKit is, in fact, a group of augmented reality tools that you can use for building your app.

And its heavy-weighing pro, that helped it make it to our list here, is that it's... an open-source code! That's right, you gain free access to its library, so you'll be able to tailor its source code to your AR app's specific development needs.

Nevertheless, this comes with a drawback: limited documentation! So, do keep this in mind when you're on a lookout for the most appropriate AR platform for your app project.

And now, let's list its other “seductive” features besides its open-source nature:

 

  • simultaneous tracking: basically you get to “empower” your AR apps to track multiple objects at the same time
  • both single and dual camera support 
  • integration with GPS (a vital feature if it's a location-based AR app that you're developing)
  • it supports various platforms, ranging from iOS and Android to Windows, macOS, Linux...

     

5. Apple ARkit, One of The Revolutionary AR Frameworks

And it was pretty much around the time when iOS 11 introduced ARKit in the digital arena that app developers' “mad race” to build their own next big thing started.

Did you start planning your own AR solution around the same time?

Running on Apple 9, Apple 10, and A11 processors, Apple ARkit empowers you to create and deliver augmented reality experiences to your users both on iPhone and iPad (obviously!).

Now let us highlight the top-notch functionalities that will empower your app development team to put together not “just” AR experiences, but some truly realistic, immersive ones:

 

  • VIO (Visual Inertial Odometry) combines core motion data with camera sensor data, enabling your future AR app to accurately track the environment 

     
  • it's capable to detect horizontal surfaces (e.g. floors and tables) and objects on smaller feature points 

     
  • it's equipped for plane, scale, and ambient lighting estimation

     
  • fast motion tracking

     
  • it can be used with third-party tools such as Unreal Engine and Unity, with SceneKit and Metal

     

6. EasyAR 

Here's another SDK “overloaded” with cutting-edge functionalities on our augmented reality tools list here!

And even if you go with the free version of the EasyAR kit (which won't provide you with certain of its functionalities, such as SLAM, 3D tracking, and screen recording), you still get an impressive load of features:

 

  • cloud recognition
  • 1000 on-device targets storage
  • unlimited recognition queries

     

And where do you add that getting it up and running is just a matter of registering your account and generating your Bundle ID's plugin key.

Its list of top features would have to include:

 

  • cloud recognition
  • app cloud packaging
  • 3D object recognition
  • environment tracking

     

The END! These are the 6 augmented reality tools that you should consider selecting from if you're decided to go ahead and build your first AR solution this year. Good luck checking them off your New Year's resolutions list!

What Are the Advantages of Using Flutter? 10 Good Reasons to Choose It for Your Next App Project

What Are the Advantages of Using Flutter? 10 Good Reasons to Choose It for Your Next App Project

Why would you want to build your next app with Flutter? Instead of... React Native? Or maybe Swift? What are the key advantages of using Flutter? Here are the best reasons why you'd want to give it a go for your next app project: But What Is Flutter Used For Anyway? ... for building native-looking Android and iOS apps using a single codebase. "But how is it any different from other cross-platform frameworks?" you might ask yourself. Widgets... That's right, they're Flutter's equivalent of the React Native components. Or of the native UI components, if you wish. You get to put together a fully customed UI for your app by choosing, then mixing and matching several ready-made widgets. They look either iOS-native or Android-native and... you can even create your own widgets, from the ground up. A widget could stand for a menu or a button, a slider, text, toggle... Reason #1: You Get to Share Both the UI Code and the UI Itself Between Multiple Platforms In short: you can make the most of having a common UI and business logic for all your target platforms. And this is where Flutter manages to stand out from the crowd of cross-platform frameworks: It doesn't just have a unique codebase for all platforms: it also shares both the UI and the UI code globally, across iOS and Android. In other words, one language, one UI, same business logic translates into UI consistency across platforms. Reason #2: You Reduce Maintenance Costs, One of the Main Advantages of Using Flutter       And that's pretty obvious since you only have one codebase to maintain.                Reason #3: You Save Time and Money (And Get to Be More Productive) Just imagine: You will use the same codebase for both the Android and iOS versions of your app. So, this can only bubble up to your... overall costs.  You: build one app and run it on multiple platforms (saving time and resources) get to build more apps... faster reach a wider audience with a single investment  Reason #4: You Get to Inject Native-Level of Performance into Your App "Why choose Flutter in 2020?" Because it powers your app with close-to-native performance. With Dart (Flutter's programming language) compiling everything into native code, and the need of accessing OEM widgets, out of the equation, you get better app startup times. Reason #5: You'll Develop Your App Much Faster The Flutter development experience is one of the best. And the main reason why developing a Flutter app is so much simpler and, therefore, faster. Here's why: The "hot reload" feature allows your developers to view the changes made in code on simulators, hardware, and emulators in... real-time. With no need to restart. This speeds up processes like adding new features, building your app's UI, and even testing it. One of the main advantages of using Flutter... And, where do you add that you have a huge collection of ready-to-use-widgets at hand, which speeds up your app's development process. Reason #6: You Speed Up Time to Market for Your New App Since you don't need to develop separate apps anymore, one for iOS and one for Android, you get to launch your app much faster. And to reduce your time to market. Reason #7: You Get to Fully Customize the UI Another one of the strongest Flutter app development advantages is the huge customization potential. You get to customize your app's UI in the slightest detail. And here are 2 ways that you can do that: browse through its impressive collection of prepackaged, core layout widgets, pick the ones that fit your needs, customize them to your liking and... create a fully customed UI go for some of the pre-built widgets that mimic the behavior of the iOS and the Android design languages: Cupertino and Material You're free to customize every aspect of your UI, no matter how complex, thanks to Flutter's ready-to-use widgets.   ... and to save lots of time while doing it. Reason #8: You Spend Less Time Testing Your Application Just think about it: The widgets making up your UI are part of the app itself and not part of the iOS or the Android platform. So, you're less likely to face incompatibility issues. Which translates into less time invested in testing your app... Reason #9: You Can Learn It in Just About... 2 Weeks  You/your development team will spend less time learning it. And this is one of the key advantages of using Flutter. Here's why: The UI in Flutter is code, basically. So, you can just put logic on the UI code to create, use, and... reuse components. Reason #10: You Get to Build a UI-Heavy App in No Time "Is Flutter a good choice?" It is if it's a UI-heavy application that you need to build. And you need it built really fast. The END! Now, whether these 10 reasons are strong enough for you to give Flutter a go or... not quite, one thing's for sure: You need a fast, great-looking app, that should incorporate all those powerful features on your wishlist. Nothing easier. Just drop us a line with that wishlist of yours and let's get it built!   Image by RSunset from Pixabay   ... Read more

The SEO Shopify Checklist: How to Get Your Store to Rank Higher Fast in 10 Simple Steps (Part 2)

The SEO Shopify Checklist: How to Get Your Store to Rank Higher Fast in 10 Simple Steps (Part 2)

See? We are a team of our word. As promised in Part 1, we're back with 5 more steps to add to your SEO Shopify checklist. And to boost the ranking of your new Shopify store (and its traffic, and the sales, and... all the "good stuff" that comes from an effective SEO strategy). So, let's dive right in. Here are the other 5 simple, yet effective improvements that you can make to your eCommerce website: Step 6: Optimize Your Product Pages "How does a Shopify store rank on Google?" It "bets" on a mix of unique product descriptions and on-product-page SEO best practices. "Often times product pages don't have the content that they need to perform well in the SERPs" (MOZ.com) With so many eCommerce brands still striving to get the most out of these 2 totally ineffective tactics: using the same description on multiple product pages across their websites displaying the manufacturers' descriptions on their product pages ... you stand high chances to get your own product pages to rank higher in the SERPS. Now, let's get specific.  6.1. 4 Best Practices to Increase Engagement on Your Product Pages add unique content to each page (don't be that Shopify store owner who uses the same content across all his/her product pages!) write your own product descriptions (and make sure to create one for each product in your inventory; focus on their best features and benefits) add product reviews and highlight ratings add high-quality images and videos of your products link to related products Source: spiegel.medill.northwestern.edu   Tip! One of the best SEO Shopify apps that you could use at this point is Product Reviews. It'll add SEO-friendly scores to all your product pages. 6.2. 3 Best Practices to Keyword Optimize Your Product Pages include your target keywords in the title tags, product descriptions, and meta descriptions remember to add it to your ALT text for images, as well make sure your keywords fit naturally into the text And, again, I can't stress enough the importance of original and unique product descriptions! Step 7: Add a Blog, Another Critical Step On Your SEO Shopify Checklist "If you’re seeing that Google is ranking more blog/article types of content for the keywords mapped to your Shopify store, your best bet is to go out and create that content yourself." (MOZ.com) Now, let's say that, as you're building the SEO for your Shopify store, you're trying to rank for quite a lot of informational keywords ("How to...", "What's the best...", etc.). You've already mapped them all to your store (i.e. to your product and your category pages) and... nothing. Your Shopify store's still on... page 10 in the searches for those keywords. But what about those stores that do rank high for the same keywords with informational intent? Is it their product/category pages that Google ranks? Or rather post from their blogs, that include those keywords? Mystery solved. If you want to have your store rank high for keywords with informational intent you need to add a blog to your Shopify site. It's there that you can write informational (and epic) content around those specific keywords. "Google is starting to prefer to rank more informational content above transactional. " (MOZ.com)  7.1. 4 Reasons Why You'd Want to Start Blogging on Your Shopify Store    face it: only a ridiculously small percent of your website's visitors access it with a clear intention to buy. To increase chances to turn them from visitors to customers, you need to... educate them; to provide them with informational content for each stage in the buyer's journey once you write high-quality content on your blog you can send some of that authority to your product and category pages (which, otherwise, are so hard to link to); internal linking still is on of the best SEO tips for Shopify that you should make the most of blog posts make great tools for "pitching" your products (just make sure you target the right keywords) a blog is a perfect place on your website to add informational content that Google ranks high   "But what should I blog about?" Glad you asked. Here are 3 simple ways that you can come up with some killer blog post topics: a. Ask yourself how your customers could get more value out of your product. For instance, you might be selling... hand blenders. Then, you could come up with recipes on "how to make creamy tomato soup in just 3 minutes" using a particular feature of your blenders. b. When you do your keyword research, make a list of all the user questions around those keywords. Then, go ahead and "exploit" them: write blog posts around the questions that your future customers have. c. Or, you can... brainstorm those questions. Ask yourself what inquiries and dilemmas related to your products your customers might be dealing with. For instance, you could be selling clothes made of a... revolutionary type of linen. Your potential customers could be wondering: "What makes it so revolutionary?". Or "Why is linen so expensive?" or "What's the difference between cotton and linen?" Step 8: Find and Fix all the Duplicate Content Issues Removing all duplicates is one of the crucial steps to take for improving the SEO of your Shopify store. It's also one of those issues common to Shopify stores in particular: 2 versions of your domain (with the same content) get indexed: the myshopify one and the custom domain one. Tip! When you add your custom domain to Shopify, make sure to check that all the traffic gets automatically redirected to your primary domain. How? Just go to Online Store > Domains and, if the message that you get there is “Traffic from your domains is not being redirected to this primary domain.”, click "Enable redirection". If it says “Traffic from all your domains redirects to this primary domain", then you're safe. But it's always best to check first. This way, you avoid the scenario where you're making it harder than necessary for Google to rank your Shopify store. For it won't know which of the 2 indexed versions is the "official" one. And speaking of the "duplicate content" danger that's greater in the case of Shopify websites, here are 2 ways that this eCommerce platform duplicates content. 8.1. It duplicates collection pages via pagination Meaning that it duplicates the first product category page in a series. You'll see “?page=1” included in the URL to the first page in that series.  And this URL is highly likely to have the same content as the first, non-parameterized URL. So, when working on the SEO for your Shopify store, make sure to identify and to remove all the duplicate paginated URLs. 8.2. It duplicates product pages  You'll have your product pages rendering at 2 different URL paths: the canonical one: /products/ the default, non-canonical one: /collections/.*/products/ Basically, Shopify creates several links for each category that a product is in. How to fix that? You can address this issue right in your theme's .liquid files. Just follow the step-by-step guide there to get it fixed. Step 9: Use an Alternative to Robots.txt File to Control Google's Crawl  Why would you want to add this point to your SEO Shopify checklist? Because in Shopify you cannot adjust the robots.txt file.  And, since you don't want Google to crawl the content on your website altogether, you'll need to look for alternatives. You could, for instance, consider canonical or "no follow" tags. Step 10: Build Links to Your Shopify Store It's sill is one of the most challenging parts when doing SEO for Shopify in 2020. But it's also one of the most powerful tactics, that can make or break an effective SEO strategy. Still, no need to get discouraged. There are a few simple and effective ways to get quality, relevant links to your Shopify store and boost its authority:   guest blog on relevant websites (remember to add a link to your online store in your blog post) reach out to those websites that have already mentioned your brand (your products, your brand's name, etc.), but "overlooked" to include a link to your website, as well form partnerships with publishers or other eCommerce businesses in your industry  find out who's linking to your competitors' stores and reach out to them   Our Recommendation for You Is... ... to balance out your SEO efforts and your efforts to provide the best user experience. Your mail goal, as a Shopify store owner, should go beyond that of achieving a higher ranking: More sales is your ultimate goal. And for that, delivering the best user experience (a fast loading site, helpful image descriptions, useful content, etc.) is critical. So, in addition to these 10 points on your SEO Shopify checklist, be sure to add another one: Provide users with what they're looking for on your website. And make it easy for them to find it. The better their experience will be, the higher your chances to have your site pushed up in the rankings. Now, if you'd want to have your store bumped up in the search results, but without having to: get tangled up in link building tactics be on the lookout for duplicate content issues come up with a unique and keyword-optimized description for every single product in your inventory ... just shift the burden to us.
