Education
Our #1 Conservation Goal
At Zoo-AR our #1 goal is increased retention and conservation education. We want visitors asking, "What can I do?" when they leave one of our partner zoos. Better yet, we educate them on how they can help.

Innovation Behind Zoo-AR
Zoo-AR is centered around our Augmented Reality technology. With mobile device penetration nearing 75% of the population, it's the smartest way to reach our audiences.

How it works
Zoo-AR works on a yearly software license. What this means is that as our library of animals grow, and our educational content increases, it is automatically pushed to whatever Zoo's are currently subscribed.
We have a stable of about 15 of the major land mammals and sea creatures currently, and we plan to have over 50 developed over the next 12 months. We are also available to develop custom exhibits with specified animals based on an individual Zoo's needs.
One of the biggest appeals to Zoo-AR besides the educational messaging is the revenue generating opportunities. Zoo-AR has built in sponsorship locations for conservation conscious companies interested in being a part of moving technology and education forward. As a Zoo, there are many opportunies to sell these sponsorships for much more than our small yearly licensing fee.
In addition to this, Zoo-AR has been proven to increase time spent at exhibits all around the Zoo. According to numerous studies presented at AZA, interactive exhibits also tend to increase attendance by as much as 50%. It's easy to see that Zoo-AR not only has strong educational and conservational value, but it more than pays for itself as well.
