ZOOKAZAM DOMINATES AR ANIMAL KINGDOM

Atlanta, GA (July 8, 2015) Atlanta-based AR firm blows minds with the release of inaugural project: ZooKazam.

This platform has taken augmented reality to the next level by using virtually realistic content to provide advanced technology at an extremely low cost. The user-friendly interface develops a unique and unforgettable user experience.

A compilation of tech nerds and visual artists, this award-winning team combined powers to produce the most advanced AR platform available for mobile devices. Intended to be educational and engaging, ZooKazam possesses the unique ability to immediately capture and keep the user’s attention.

The app features a selection of more than 45 holographic and interactive animals including dinosaurs, mammals and sea creatures coupled with information and environmental scene selections.

The update currently in production to be released later this summer includes a plethora of features that will improve the app. After already providing the AR experience to consumers without the need for expensive hardware, ZooKazam recently developed a method that completely eliminates the need for a physical target.

After acquiring Zoo Atlanta as their first client, ZooKazam is spreading its story worldwide. Educators around the globe seek ZooKazam for use in the classroom.

Recently featured in a United Kingdom Podcast, ZooKazam’s CEO beamed with optimism and delight for the future of AR technology and development.

Users demonstrated ZooKazam in summer conferences held by the International Society for Technology in Education and Animate 2 Educate, as well as tech camps and tech education meet ups across the nation.

In addition to zoos and educational facilities, the ZooKazam team seeks relationships with large brands such as Coke, Geico and professional athletic organizations to help deliver memorable marketing campaigns.

ZooKazam operates out of Atlanta Tech Village in the heart of Buckhead amid a growing technology empire of the U.S. southeast.

The app is available for download on iTunes and Google Play and works on all Apple and Andriod devices.
