Location-Based AR
A location-based AR app for map discovery and geolocated experiences
ARLOOPA connects digital content to real places. Users can discover experiences on the map, travel to a point of interest, and open location-based AR that is anchored to a real-world context.
Teams can create this experience type in ARLOOPA Studio, publish it to the ARLOOPA app, and let users open it through the same viewing flow on mobile or headset devices.
Discover AR linked to real cities, landmarks, and routes
Useful for tourism, events, and outdoor activations
Map-based discovery helps users browse nearby content
Supports storytelling tied to real places
Map-led discovery
Use real locations as the entry point to AR content
Location-based AR works when the place matters as much as the content itself. ARLOOPA helps teams attach stories, guides, and interactive moments to real coordinates that users can find on a map.
This makes the app useful for tourism, public art, outdoor events, brand stunts, city exploration, and activations where audience movement is part of the experience.
Attach digital content to landmarks or points of interest
Use maps to guide users toward experiences
Blend tourism, navigation, and immersive storytelling
Why it matters
A better fit for experiences that should feel site-specific
Some AR scenes lose meaning when separated from their physical setting. Geolocated AR preserves that connection and gives users a stronger reason to visit, explore, and share.
ARLOOPA provides both the discovery layer and the viewing layer, which is useful for campaigns that need to move users from map browsing to on-location engagement.
Strong fit for tourism and destination marketing
Useful for quests, trails, and public campaigns
Supports city-scale and venue-scale storytelling
Create and Publish
Build this experience in ARLOOPA Studio
ARLOOPA is not only for viewing. Teams can create marker-based, markerless, and location-based experiences in ARLOOPA Studio, then publish them so users can open the result in the ARLOOPA app.
The same ecosystem supports both sides of the workflow: creator teams build and manage experiences in Studio, while end users discover and launch them in the ARLOOPA app.
1. Start in ARLOOPA Studio and choose the experience type you want to publish.
2. Build the scene, configure the trigger or placement mode, and publish for the ARLOOPA app.
3. Let users open the experience in the app through scanning, placement, location discovery, or shared links.
