AR Photos
Can Printed Photos Play Videos?
Yes. With AR photo albums. Learn how a printed page can play video when scanned with the Glimp app.
Yes. A printed photo can play a video when it’s part of an AR-enabled product. The paper doesn’t contain a screen. Your phone does the playback after it recognizes the printed image.
How Glimp does it
While designing your album or photobook, attach a video to any photo you choose. After printing, scan that page in the Glimp app. The photo “comes alive” and plays the clip you connected. Vows, travel footage, a birthday toast, a message from afar.
What it’s great for
- Wedding albums that include ceremony or reception clips
- Travel photobooks with moments you can’t capture in a still
- Gifts that include a personal video message
- Family albums where kids’ voices and laughter matter as much as the picture
If you’ve ever wished a photo could “play,” that’s exactly what Glimp is built for. Without turning your keepsake into another screen that needs charging.
