Getting a look at a car's interior is as simple as lifting up its hood—or interacting with the iPad application Toyota created to show off its C-HR model. The augmented reality app Toyota created with digital agency Brandwidth was created for use in showrooms, shopping centers and trade shows, giving consumers the chance to see the inner-workings of the car model with something like X-ray vision.
With augmented reality and object recognition software, the app overlays the interior components of the hybrid car onto the physical version of the car on-site. In this way, consumers are able to digitally interact with the car and learn about its key features, including how it uses energy and how its drivetrain operates.
