Yearbook AR
Walsworth was the first company to bring augmented reality to yearbooks. Now, we are excited to share the latest in augmented reality (AR) technology with Yearbook AR.
Yearbook AR enhances what you see by overlaying digital content onto a yearbook page, cover or endsheet. To learn more, keep reading this page or watch this short video.
Yearbook AR doesn’t replace the content in the printed yearbook – it augments it by giving yearbook buyers an additional experience and opportunity to relive the important moments of the school year.
Imagine being able to pick up your school’s yearbook with the mascot on the cover, scan it with an app on your smartphone or tablet and watch that mascot jump to life in an animation.
Or think about that great image of the homecoming football game, scan it with that same mobile app and watch the players spring into action as video highlights of the game start to play on your device.
To watch our exciting augmented reality solution in action, download the Yearbook AR app from the App Store or Google Play. After downloading the app, open Yearbook AR and scan these images:
