With the Popcards App, you can create printed greeting cards that come to life with an augmented reality video experience.

About Popcards
Popcards are the newest innovation in Greeting Cards that combine both a photo and video in an augmented reality experience. Imagine getting a birth announcement in the mail from your best friend. There is a photo on the announcement with an icon that says, "View with Popcards", a downloadable iOS or Android app. You scan the photo with the app and it instantly comes to life with a video of the mother introducing her new baby to the world.
There are lots of applications: a Holiday Greeting Card with a video of a family's personal message, a Save the Date Announcement with a video of the couple in love, a Graduation Announcement with a video of the graduate talking about college plans, or a simple Thank You card with a personal video from the bride and groom.
