Crate: Augmented Reality

Crate is the first its kind mobile application. This augmented reality app allows you to scan the front cover of music albums and will instantly display a three-dimensional video on the smart device’s screen. The app can recognize different album covers and instantly renders the music video. This is useful for people who are album collectors, record store owners, and anyone who would be interested in finding out more information about your favorite music!

Watch Demo Video! Here are some features that will be on the Full release of Crate: AR

The Augmented reality feature will always be available for anyone to use freely.

There are a lot of benefits that this application can bring. However, I believe that this app will help many independent musicians who are selling CDs or vinyl records. I wish to help these artists and musicians by providing them with a platform that gives their constantly changing fan base a whole new way to experience buying an album!
