Augmented reality is the future.

You might not know it yet, but the 2020s are going to shift the way we see the world. Today, your computer and phone are the portals through which you interact with the internet. Through a combination of software and experience our thumbs manipulate digital information before our eyes. In tomorrow’s world there will be no barrier between the real and the digital. 3D elements overlaid directly into your field of view.

Examples of this are slowly starting to materialize. For the past few years Nextech AR Solutions has made strides towards this vision with its explosive growth and innovative products. 

Snapchat is a more familiar example of augmented reality’s presence in our everyday lives. The recent improvements to their Lens Studio shows a commitment to their belief that AR is the future. Not to mention all the eerily similar features Instagram has implemented after observing Snap and TikTok pass them by in terms of functionality and experience.

All of these apps have started to expose humans to immersive reality bending filters. Within this decade those filters will be superimposed over your view of the real world. Seamlessly integrating a multiverse of digital layers you could swipe through like filters on your phone.
