3D Avatar Messengers

This Animated Avatar Chat App Brings New Dimension to Online Messaging

— May 21, 2016 — Tech
This 3D-animated avatar chat platform brings a new component to the saturated messenger app field. Developed by Futurefly, Rawr Messenger uses 3-dimensional animated avatars to communicate online. Described as "messaging 3.0," the smartphone app gives users a new way to express their multi-dimensional selves. The avatars perform your texts, allowing friends to hug, dance and more.

Available for free in the App Store, the Rawr Messenger app doesn't seek to replace the other chat apps you are already using, it just wants one of those top spots. Given the popularity of emojis and gifs when it comes to non-verbal communication, this avatar chat platform could very well be the future when it comes to mobile messenger applications.

2. Multi-dimensional Self-expression - Futurefly's app allows users to express their multi-dimensional selves through avatar interactions, creating opportunities for new forms of self-expression and ways to connect with others.
3. Personalized Digital Interaction - Rawr Messenger's use of 3D-animated avatars opens up possibilities for more personalized and engaging digital interactions in messaging applications.
Industry Implications
1. Mobile Messaging - Rawr Messenger's new approach to messaging could disrupt the mobile messaging industry by offering a new component to an already saturated field.
2. Animation and Gaming - Futurefly's 3D-avatar technology utilized in Rawr Messenger could have potential applications in the gaming and animation industry by providing revolutionary new forms of avatar expressions.
3. Digital Advertising - Rawr Messenger's unique approach to mobile messaging could lead to new opportunities for digital advertising in the mobile communications industry.
