Building the Future Smart Mall with Augmented Reality

Let's Discuss Your Project

Overview

Over the past decade, e-commerce has been disrupting brick-and-mortar retailers. Reports of shopping centers and malls being shut down are heard from various countries. Online commerce is growing year over year compared to its traditional counterpart (brick-and-mortar stores). Online shopping provides consumers the advantage of placing orders at their convenience. Combine this with a wide range of products and deep discounts offered by digital retailers; e-commerce is eating up a large market share of the retail industry. Does that really sound the death knell of shopping malls and physical retail stores? Not likely. This is where Fingent can help retailers like you. We take an in-depth look at your consumer journey and use technology to improve it, most importantly to help your consumers gain a personalized in-store experience which they never forget.

Building the Future Smart Mall with Augmented Reality

Digital innovation can transform today’s shopping malls to smart malls of the future. For this, retailers need to embrace a smart model that combines the physical act of shopping with digital experience. This is where technologies like Augmented Reality (AR) can be used to improve the consumer’s in-store experience. The smart mall of the future is all about enhancing consumers’ experiences through their mobile devices integrated with Augmented Reality. 

Here’re a few augmented reality use cases for the smart mall.

Indoor games

Consumers can use the mobile app to scan clues and identify hidden treasures/coins and exchange them for getting discount coupons.

Offer/ voucher management

Consumers could scan hallways to get new offers/sales, redeem loyalty points, and earn discount coupons.

Immersive interaction

Interact with Augmented/ Projected characters/ animals, take pictures and experience products/ services in real-time.
Fingent’s smart mall solution offers consumers and retailers a mobile app that integrates AR and analytics into its fold. Understanding your consumer is vital and that’s why our ecosystem involves a recommendation engine that helps you profile your consumers by recording, analyzing, and visualizing consumer data gathered from different touchpoints.
