Convert your 2D images into Augmented Reality content for iPhone and iPad
What if your products or designs could look as good on an iOS 12+ mobile device as they do in real life? Well, that’s what USDZ files do.
CartMagician takes advantage of Apple’s ARKit 3 technology which utilises the USDZ file format to activate Web AR content on Apple devices simply by opening Safari, Chrome, Edge or Firefox browsers.
Fortunately, you don’t need to be an expert to create USDZ files. CartMagician’s conversion tools will take your 2D JPEG or PNG files and convert them into USDZ for you in just a few clicks.
*CartMagician 2D to USDZ conversion tool is included in the CartMagician Lite Plan and free trial.
How does it work?
Step 1
Upload your JPEG or PNG image
Upload the JPEG or PNG image file of your product or design. It will be stored in your Media files for future use.
Step 2
Select a 3D template
Select a pre-rendered 3D template to house your image e.g. a canvas, timber frame, rug or wallpaper. If you can’t find what you need we can create a custom AR template for you.
If you can’t find what you are looking for, you can request a customised model that meets your needs.
Step 3
Hit ‘Start 2D Conversion’.
CartMagician will combine your 2D image with the 3D template and output a web-ready USDZ file.
Step 4
