Mobile AR: Augmenting Business with New Features

Engineers, Designers, Artists, Enthusiasts, Experts, Learners and more…Join us and guest speaker, Kenny Bier, during our Immersive Hack Night!

Kenny Bier will conduct a comprehensive course covering why large companies like Apple, Google, Facebook, and Snapchat are making big pushes into the AR world, then delve into the new updates to ARKit, AR Core, AR Studio, and Lens Studio. After our course, we will hold demos for those working on related projects to showcase their work - message VR@capitalfactory.com if you have a mobile AR project you would like to demo.
