  • As 2024 comes to a close, we’re reflecting on Zappar’s proudest XR moments of the year 🎉 ⚡ Studio Z — our in-house creative powerhouse — brought unforgettable AR experiences to life for global brands including Nestlé, LEGOLAND, UGG, and Disney. ⚡ Zapworks continued to break new ground, introducing location-based AR through our exciting new Immersal integration with Mattercraft. This innovation opens up new possibilities for immersive, location-driven experiences. ⚡ Zapvision has made waves, partnering with iconic brands like KitKat, Quality Street, and Ketel One, alongside long-term partners like Unilever and Bayer, to help us scale our accessible QR solution to make packaging more inclusive consumers who are blind or have low vision. ⚡ Zapbox — the ultimate iPhone accessory for high-quality mixed reality — introduced PCVR streaming, joining Open Brush and WebXR support. Proof that you don’t need a big budget to unlock big tech experiences! 🚀 Join us in celebrating a year of pushing XR boundaries, and here’s to even more innovation, creativity, and accessible tech in 2025! #AR #XR #Innovation

  • How can your packaging turn customers into brand advocates (and maybe a squad of micro-influencers)? Nestlé’s #CiniMinis cereal nailed it by transforming an everyday cereal box into an interactive at-home experience. By scanning a code and snapping a picture CiniMinis customers become stars of the experience creating a fun, shareable moment that connects consumers to the brand while they enjoy the product. The payoff? Stronger relationships, organic social buzz, and a whole lot of brand love. 💛 The trick is simple: make your packaging irresistible. If it grabs attention and says, “This is worth a scan!” your audience will take action. But don’t stop there—deliver an experience that’s entertaining, useful, or just plain cool. Delight them, and you’ll open the door to valuable first-party data, increased sales, and customers sharing their excitement online. It’s proof that packaging can do so much more than hold a product. Ready to rethink your next unboxing moment? 🚀 #StudioZ
