2. INTRODUCTION
Augmented Reality (AR) has revolutionized how we perceive and
interact with reality by overlaying virtual elements onto the real world.
In this presentation, we will explore the profound impact of AR on
consumer behavior, revealing how this technology actively involves
users, heightening engagement, and creating lasting brand
impressions. AR's ability to provide personalized experiences, from
virtual try-ons to home product visualizations, empowers consumers to
make informed purchase decisions, fostering trust and confidence.
AR's gamification and entertainment aspects foster brand loyalty and
prolonged engagement. As we delve deeper, we will uncover how
businesses can leverage AR to transform marketing campaigns into
immersive experiences, bridging the gap between online and offline
shopping and driving increased customer satisfaction. This
presentation highlights the undeniable potential of AR in reshaping
marketing strategies and propelling businesses to new levels of
success.

Place" app by IKEA. This app utilizes AR technology, allowing users to
place IKEA furniture items virtually in their homes. Using smartphone
cameras lets customers see how different pieces would look and fit in
their living spaces.
It enhanced customer experience by offering a fully immersive AR
experience, the IKEA Place app revolutionized the way consumers buy
furniture. They can virtually place IKEA furniture in their homes using
the app, giving them the opportunity to see how the items would look
and fit before making a purchase. As a result, customers now have a

furniture purchases are no longer fraught with uncertainty and
guesswork. It made wonders for IKEA wherein their customers
demonstrated increased confidence in their purchase decisions and
overall improved engagement and brand awareness.
