Solution

Mobile shopping app for iOS and Android for increasing customer engagement and revamping user experience through utmost interactivity

Challenge

Emerline’s team aimed to deliver a mobile app for retail, enhanced with AR features to take the headache out of online shopping.

An ability to visualize and digitally examine a pair of shoes without leaving a comfortable apartment should reduce a product’s return rate.

Another objective was to retain customers and attract new buyers, which turned out to be a hot-button issue during the pandemic.

Solution

Mobile shopping app for iOS and Android for increasing customer engagement and revamping user experience through utmost interactivity.

AR tech provides a new way to get familiar with products and contributes to the “experience-before-you-buy” purchasing model, thus minimizing goods returns and attracting new customers.

Development Approach

To deliver the project, our team worked with shoe 3D models provided by the client for all the required objects. To accurately display them on mobile, we converted the necessary data to another format.

Our project goal was to enable the close to reality experience and give the app users an opportunity to enjoy smart and easy shopping. Alternatively, if there is a need to let users “try on” shoes to find the proper size, we know how to put this feature into practice.

Our Contribution

Full cycle project: architecture, design, development, implementation, and support of the solution.
