People, who have been using the computers and smart phones for their daily based activities, will not be surprised when they see a brand promotion through their phones. SMS, ringtones, etc have become common as means of promotions about different products. Bulk SMS started when mobile telephony became common. But the world, it seems, has come beyond the computers and mobile phones.
Applications that were being used in computers are nowadays available through the mobile phones and the internet is being actively utilised to reach the corners of the world. It is time for using the mobile components for the marketing, and using the social media as the user content platform. No one in the world is immune from the knowledge of facebook or twitter or other such social media. There might be few, who might not be using it, but they surely will know these terms.
If the pictures uploaded by the public in social sites is used and put in front of others and all the pictures collected point to a particular brand, then it is an obvious kind of advertisement for that company and that brand. Using the image and picture recognition application, such pictures with a particular brand can be recognised. Such a methodology for the image recognition is not new, but its use is being done for a new purpose.
By the means of computer vision applications, these pictures are fed into the hardware and the applications will immediately sort out the pictures, which are legible to be put into another place, from where the brand promotion can be carried out. These pictures can then be converted into images and the mobile games can be devised, which will now use the real life pictures in the animated or cartoon forms. Such gaming applications are being provided to the people, and very rightly the picture games are getting hugely popular among the public. It is always interesting to have games where the day to day items are being used as props.
As these advertising strategies are being recognised, companies are nowadays trying to incorporate the picture games in their application developing departments. AR games are a new form of such games, which utilise the augmented reality concept, where the images are created in a 3D environment infront of the eyes and people can play them, without even touching their mobiles or computers.
Innovations are creating such standards which are scalable and the methods are getting improved in a very rapid rate. At a time when user content platform is being put to use for advertising purposes, getting a new method for gaming is a small but sure step towards making augmented reality a reality. Concepts are gradually changing and the need of the time is to improvise on what is already there, to make the user experience better.
