Snipp Interactive Launches an Augmented Reality (AR) Campaign For Honda, Its Second Branded AR Campaign for a Major Auto Brand


BETHESDA, MARYLAND--(Marketwired - Feb. 10, 2015) - Snipp Interactive Inc. ("Snipp"), an international provider of mobile marketing solutions listed on the TSX Venture Exchange (TSX VENTURE:SPN), announced the launch of a new Augmented Reality campaign for Honda, represented by Alghanim Motors in Kuwait. This is the second Augmented Reality ("AR") campaign with a mainstream auto brand in the Middle East.

Alghanim Motors, the sole distributor for Honda products in Kuwait, is launching the new 2015 CRV and is leveraging Snipp's augmented reality capabilities to educate customers on its new features and to turbocharge their launch advertisement in digital media. Snipp has created an interactive, immersive Augmented Reality campaign with multiple triggers showcasing different aspects of the car. One trigger loads an animation of the engine, another takes the customer on a virtual journey of all the new features, and a third plays an in-page launch video. In addition Snipp has added a "WIN an iPhone6" promotion built into the experience to incentivize people to sign up for test-drives.

Atul Sabharwal, CEO of Snipp, said, "We are thrilled with the launch of yet another AR campaign in the Middle East. With our innovative solutions using emerging technology, we are able to help our clients improve the quality and effectiveness of their sales efforts and enhance the user experience for customers. Previously the sales team would have to verbally explain the features and manually enter customer leads. With our AR solutions we are able to create a new sales paradigm for them."
