PR Newswire

MAYNARD, Mass., May 25, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Kaon Interactive, the leading provider of 3D marketing and sales applications for global B2B brands is working with Google (NYSE: GOOGL) and Lenovo (NYSE: LNVGY) to accelerate the advancement of the augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) industry. The three companies will showcase their work together at Augmented World Expo in Santa Clara, Calif., later this month. Click here to view a video of the 3D AR product models in action.

Already used in production by numerous B2B Fortune 500 companies, the Kaon High Velocity Marketing Platform® currently deploys applications to Tango-enabled devices, allowing companies to showcase fully-scaled 3D augmented reality models of their products in their customers' physical space. Tango is Google's technology enabling AR experiences, and Lenovo's Phab 2 Pro is currently the only commercial Tango-enabled Smartphone that enables augmented reality.

Participating companies are currently using these interactive sales and marketing applications at trade shows and at customer meetings to show how products look and behave in the customers' actual medical laboratories, datacenters and manufacturing facilities. With the new AR applications in use today, Google, Lenovo and Kaon will focus on full rollouts to Fortune 500 sales teams.

"AR and VR applications are game-changers for B2B marketers, but we're just scratching the surface," said Kaon Interactive President & CEO, Gavin Finn. "As innovative Tango- and Daydream-enabled devices are brought to market, such as the Phab 2 Pro and the Daydream standalone VR headset from Lenovo, which was just announced at Google I/O, Fortune 500 sales teams will increasingly adopt the technology as competitive marketing and sales differentiators. Google and Lenovo have recognized this potential, and we're excited about partnering to deliver more collaborative offerings."

The trio will showcase its AR and VR experiences at Augmented World Expo in Santa Clara, Calif., on May 31June 2 at booth #237. There, attendees will have the opportunity to experience Kaon's AR and VR applications on the Lenovo Phab 2 Pro via Tango. Additionally, Gavin Finn will participate in a 30-minute all-star panel, hosted on the AWE main stage, on May 31 that is sure to inspire the AR and VR industry audience.

Kaon AR® is the first B2B Augmented Reality marketing application that integrates interactive 3D Product Models into real-world business environments.
