AR Real-Time Navigation and Smart City Infrastructure Platform
Manufacturing & Industrial
Project Overview
Next AR Tech, a Krazio Cloud subsidiary, built an advanced AR navigation and infrastructure platform aimed at transforming cities into smarter, more connected environments. The system uses augmented reality to project live data and navigation overlays in real-world contexts, helping users visualize and interact with city information intuitively. This innovation supports municipal authorities, commuters, and tourists by combining digital intelligence with physical navigation, making city exploration more efficient and engaging.
Challenge
Modern cities face constant challenges in managing traffic, providing real-time navigation, and ensuring citizens can access reliable information about urban infrastructure. Traditional navigation systems are often limited to two-dimensional maps that fail to represent real-world contexts such as pedestrian routes, public transport zones, and accessibility pathways. Additionally, municipalities struggle to communicate live updates on road closures, maintenance works, or events that affect public movement. There was a growing need for an innovative platform capable of integrating all these elements into an intuitive and visually interactive navigation system.
Solution
Next AR Tech designed and developed an AR-powered smart city navigation platform that overlays real-time urban data directly onto the user’s surroundings. By simply holding up their mobile device or AR glasses, users can view live navigation directions, traffic updates, transport schedules, and infrastructure alerts in 3D. The system integrates seamlessly with municipal data sources to provide accurate and up-to-date information. The platform also features emergency route assistance, accessibility mapping for differently-abled users, and interactive city guides. Through this technology, Next AR Tech created a comprehensive solution that redefines how residents and visitors interact with urban environments.
Results
Cities that adopted the AR navigation platform experienced improved traffic flow and better citizen engagement. The platform reduced navigation confusion by 45 percent and provided a unified view of city operations to users. Urban planners gained valuable insights through analytics on movement patterns, while residents enjoyed faster, safer, and more interactive navigation experiences. The success of this project positioned Next AR Tech as a key contributor to smart city transformation worldwide.
Next AR Tech’s AR navigation system is a breakthrough in urban mobility. It has simplified how residents and visitors move through our city while providing live data integration for our departments. This platform has made our smart city vision a reality.
