Wikitude’s Cloud Recognition service goes global

A lot of times, it’s the stuff behind the scenes that counts. Good developers know this, and we do too – that’s why we’ve expanded our Cloud Recognition service to world-wide scale.

We’re not Facebook – so why do need a global server infrastructure? Simple – better service for you, our customers.

With servers in the Americas, EMEA, and Asia, your products can dish up data with the least amount of lag-time possible. In today’s must-have-it-now world, we know attention spans are short – and we want to keep attention focused on your apps. ‘Lag time’ isn’t only important to gamers playing first-person-shooter games; it’s important to anyone using their mobile phone to access information quickly and easily.

And while the Wikitude SDK can offer up 1,000 images on the device, some apps simply need a much bigger library, and that’s where Cloud Recognition comes in. Whether your app needs to recognize the label on a bottle of wine or get multimedia content about one of the world’s biggest bands, it’s going to a snappier user experience with minimized latency and high recognition rate.

If you’re developing apps for the Asia market, there’s an added bonus – servers in China means there’s no worrying about the Great Firewall of China. Your content is guaranteed to come up no matter where it’s being requested from.

It’s all about creating better-performing tools – and with this new worldwide infrastructure behind it, our Cloud Recognition service is better than ever.
