BEAM is a platform that lets artists, musicians, writers, and brands create augmented reality experiences. Upload photos or videos, get QR codes for each, and share immersive AR content that viewers can experience through their phone cameras.

How do I create an AR experience with BEAM?

Sign up for free, create your page with a custom URL, upload photos or videos, and BEAM automatically generates QR codes for each piece. Anyone who scans the QR code can view your content in augmented reality.

Yes, BEAM is free to use. You can create your AR page, upload media, generate QR codes, and share AR experiences at no cost.

What are AR pins on the Explore Map?

AR pins are location-based content drops. Creators can place their AR media at specific real-world locations. Users nearby can discover these pins on the map and collect them by walking within range, creating a treasure hunt-like experience.

What devices support BEAM AR experiences?

BEAM works on any modern smartphone browser. iPhone users get Apple Quick Look AR for placing content in their room. All devices support the gyroscope-based AR viewer that overlays content on your camera feed.
