Google has enhanced its augmented reality (AR) try-on capabilities by introducing tools for testing hair color and foundation. This expansion adds to the existing suite of virtual testing options available on the platform. When users search for at-home hair color, specific brands will offer AR try-on experiences, allowing individuals to visualize how different shades from brands like L’Oreal, Splat, and Revlon might look on them or models they resonate with.
As reported, the implementation of AR try-on tools for hair color involves sophisticated technology to accurately portray color on various hair segments. Google has been refining its technology to ensure that the color transfer appears realistic and aligns with user expectations. The launch of this feature as part of a commercial offering demonstrates Google’s confidence in the quality and reliability of its AR try-on technology for diverse users.
In addition to hair color, Google has introduced AR try-on tools for foundation, enabling users to virtually try on different types of makeup to determine how they complement their features. The AR try-on tools for both hair color and foundation are expected to provide users with a better understanding of how different tones and shades will appear on them, contributing to a more informed decision-making process. Moreover, Google has expanded the availability of its AR try-on tools beyond the Google app.
Reportedly, users can now access the hair and foundation try-on tools in mobile browsers within the United States, offering a broader audience the opportunity to engage with these immersive experiences. As part of its ongoing efforts to integrate AR into advertising, Google has introduced AR beauty ads, allowing advertisers to leverage these interactive tools for promotional purposes. Shopping ads are now eligible to feature try-on experiences, providing users with an enriched advertising experience.
This development underscores the evolution of AR try-on tools and their potential applications in digital marketing. With the increasing focus on augmented reality, especially in the context of upcoming AR glasses from major tech companies like Meta and Apple, businesses are encouraged to explore how these tools can enhance customer engagement and overall marketing strategies.
