It's a time of recession and hardship for a lot of people, but certain companies are not letting that stop them, such as with the Saks Fifth Avenue 3D Projection. Consumers can watch the 3D bubbles and snowflake projections prance playfully across the storefront. This year the display has been re-adapted slightly.
"Shoppers could scan QR codes on the windows of Saks which saw them redirected to a mobile site where they could watch the projection and find out about Saks," according to adverblog. If that wasn't enough to wow you, know that this Saks Fifth Avenue 3D projection is in effect the longest outdoor video-mapping experience in the world.
The show runs every 5 hours from Nov 21st till Jan 6th and will help put magical warmth into this holiday season.
