      Founder & CEO

      VARS stands for Virtual and Augmented Reality Studio, we are a creative studio based in Vienna, Austria (Wien, Österreich) specialized in XR App design and development. Being XR is a term that refers to both VR and AR. There are endless VR and AR use cases in different industries for the ones we can create digital content and experiences.One of our references project is Vienna’s first augmented reality tour (die Erste Augmented Reality Rätselrallye Wiens, Österreich). This AR treasure hunt was the first AR tour in Austria and showed to be a huge success. Together with the company ArchäoNow we give participants the power to time-travel to the past and explore different parts of Vienna’s historic city center, giving participants the chance to learn, interact and experience history. We at VARS design, create and develop innovative augmented tourist and cultural heritage experiences for our customers. Thus you can add a USP to your service and attract more customers.
