OLPRO taps AR tech for staycation initiative

OLPRO has launched an augmented reality service that enables customers to see how tents, campervan and caravan awnings would fit in their gardens.

The mobile feature is provided by size.link. When visiting the Dimensions & Details section of the products on OLPRO’s website, users can click the button ‘see the size now’, open the weblink or QR Code that appears and then select ‘view in your space’.

Daniel Walton, Founder, OLPRO, says: “The idea of camping out in the garden has been hugely popular throughout this coronavirus lockdown period and has been a clear sign that 2020 will be the year of the staycation.”

“As countries from across Europe begin to ease their lockdown restrictions, we’re beginning to see a huge increase in demand for our products. However, we are still encouraging our customers to be extra careful in planning their travels away and remain safe at all times.”

“Our new augmented reality service will be perfect for those who are taking part in the Stay Home National Camping and Caravanning Week, and for those who will prefer to keep a social distance and camp in the garden.”
