Star Trek Into Darkness Mobile AR App design

Trekking into Augmented Reality

To promote Paramount’s film Star Trek Into Darkness, Signature created the world’s first Augmented Reality Movie App.

The app allowed users to delve deeper into the Star Trek universe by interacting directly with media from the film to unlock additional content and experiences. Users collected points, viewed content, and worked their way through the Star Trek Academy.

The Star Trek Into Darkness app was the first AR app to combine geo-location, image recognition, and sound-based fingerprints enabling contextual game events.

End-to-End Engagement

For the first time ever, studio marketing was able to track a fan’s engagement with movie media assets from first contact through ticket purchase and beyond.

Using Qualcomm’s Gimbal™ context awareness technology, the Star Trek app delivered exclusive content and advanced real world game experiences based on the user’s location.

We built in an audio scan function that automatically recognized and rewarded users for watching Star Trek into Darkness content on TV and other media.
