Sorry this post is a little late for the occasion (Father’s day), but I had to give The Home Depot a quick nod for coming up with yet another great application of AR for gift cards. Last year during the holiday season The Home Depot released 3D gift cards. This year they’ve taken the concept and made it a little more personal.
Buy a gift card in store, upload or record a video message, and then give the gift! The recipient can watch their video online through their webcam. In AR fashion, the gift card becomes the video screen. Take a look below, and hopefully I catch the next application like this before the holiday has past!
