A first for any marine equipment supplier, Lewmar has utilised cutting-edge augmented reality technology to allow its products to be viewed like never before. As visitors walk around stand 11.101 at METS next week, special markers will be located near ten key products.
Using any camera-equipped Android or Apple device, customers will be able to see the products move and function, slice through outer shells to observe internal mechanisms and view product information and specifications all right in front of them in virtual space.
