Product/Service

It is a leading company in the field of Augmented Reality and Artificial Intelligence with strong relationships with various national and international Universities and Research Centres.
The company offers solutions that combine augmented reality and automatic visual recognition, including the following:

• Pikkart-AR Discover, an Augmented Reality software that, once the user has uploaded photos, recognises objects and/or places (e.g. machinery in a factory, cars at a dealership, works of art in a museum) and allows content such as information sheets, images, videos and 3D elements to be associated with them. The software does not require a 3D scan of the object and/or place, making it a fast and cost-effective tool.
• Pikkart-AR logo is a patented technology that allows different augmented reality experiences to be associated with different copies of the same image (storytelling, marketing and advertising). This is achieved by applying micro-variations to images that are invisible to the human eye (steganography) but fully recognisable by our Pikkart-AR SDK software solution. This technology can be used with any type of printer and on any type of medium. This software has received the prestigious European Seal of Excellence.

How it brings value to the textile industry

Pikkart apps are adaptable to various product sectors and can be tailored to individual company needs, enabling businesses to simplify and modernise working processes. Specifically: Pikkart AR Discover is a unique patented technology worldwide that recognises objects in context and allows content such as information sheets, images, videos and 3D elements to be associated with them; it can be used for example in Industry 4.0 (access to IoT data for each individual machine in the production chain) and therefore also within production areas and lines on textile manufacturing farms.
Pikkart AR logo is a unique patented technology worldwide that allows different augmented reality experiences to be associated with different copies of the same image; it can be used for example for product supply chain tracking, while also serving as a highly useful tool to support anti-counterfeiting as well as brand awareness and packaging marketing.
The company develops innovative software and specific products, but in order to meet specific needs and requests it can integrate other Software Development Kits (SDKs) with its own applications.
