eTips.com: Travel Experience Elevated through Augmented Reality

Augmented Reality (AR) technology is making inroads into the various aspects of human life and traveling is no exception. Enabled with the AR technology, travelers are relishing the experience of visiting a foreign place with full confidence. However, challenges in terms of cost due to expensive roaming charges and abrupt internet connectivity can take the fun part away from their travel experiences. In an unknown place with little or no grip over the local language, the scene can turn worse. Addressing these pains for travelers is the travel guide apps company, eTips, that offers AR-driven apps enabled with built-in intelligence and relevant information about landmarks and places. Covering over 600 destinations across the globe, eTips offers specialized landmark guide applications for the Apple devices that help travelers to understand their surroundings better without having to depend on any other resource.

eTips offers a plethora of AR-driven apps for various destinations, museums and interesting places spread across the globe. As a perfect travel partner, travel guide apps from eTips enable the traveler to better understand the cities, landmarks, and locations they visit. The content-rich apps pertaining to travel recommendations, metro routing, and AR inform the traveler about restaurants, hotels and other hang outs in the near location through the mobile phone. These travel apps are cost efficient as these apps run in offline mode. All the user needs to do is to point the mobile device to a location and the information pops up on the screen in quick time. “Our AR-based apps provide metro maps, local audio, daily-based itineraries, city maps, with safety tips and estimated cost in the offline mode,” says Sebastian Juarez, CTO, eTips.
