Nextech AR reveals limited early access to its HoloX telepresence creator platform

Nextech AR Solutions Corp (CSE:NTAR) (OTCQB:NEXCF) (NEO:NTAR) (FRA:N29), a dominant player in the red-hot augmented reality space, has announced an exclusive, early access program for users to create, view and share their human holograms. The advanced technology company said that “program participation will support the development lifecycle of HoloX, leading to its expected full release in the third quarter of 2021.” Powered by artificial intelligence and augmented reality, HoloX builds on the company’s AiRShow app used in the music and entertainment industries where artists use holograms to meet individual audience members in their homes. The technology has also been applied successfully to smart packaging where AR human holograms are used to engage and retain customers, while boosting product sales.

The ability to create the feeling of presence – or being in the same room in real-time – with a live-streaming human hologram is one of the core technologies that will lead the transformation towards spatial computing.” TruLyfe has utilized 'Genie in a Bottle' technology – Nextech’s smart packaging solution powered by AR holograms – to bring virtual experts to life. The company said it is a fun and interactive way to share product education, deliver personalized service and stand out from competitors. “Over a five-day period, product sales (TruLyfe’s Tru-Turmeric and Tru-Melatonin) increased between 46% to 50% when the Genie in a Bottle campaign was used,” said NexTech. “At Nextech AR, we are bridging physical and digital worlds,” said Nextech chairman Paul Duffy, who is the creator of the HumaGram, and holder of multiple patents for AR and holographic telepresence. “We firmly believe that utilizing live streaming human holograms will result in an explosion of new use cases and is destined to play a significant role in global entertainment, commerce and learning.” The company said the HoloX early access program is limited to 100 seats.
