A simple web app for viewing product dimensions in AR

Take the guesswork out of online shopping. With Size.link you put in the dimensions of a product, and a box of that size will appear using augmented reality. And it's all in your browser. No app required!

Super excited to launch Size.link, the latest from Shopify's AR / VR team. It came out of a Hackdays project looking at quick ways to help improve the online buying experience when everyone is locked up at home. Size.link makes it ultra easy to see how big a product is. With augmented reality you can visualize any dimensions in front of you. So ditch that measuring tape! The best part about this tool is that it's 100% browser based and works on iOS / Android. You can embed / share a size.link (ex: https://size.link?l=10&w=5&a...), and when anyone clicks it they will launch right into AR. There's no app to install! While nothing will ever beat seeing a 3D model of the actual product in AR (ex: https://www.shopify.ca/blog/3d-m...), being able to show dimensions as a 3D box is super quick and easy to do. So what will you visualize? - That sofa you've always wanted, - Whether a curbside pick-up will fit in your car. - The treehouse you're building for you dog, Rosco.

Hey ?makers I love this product and the UX is great. Will size.link ever allow the ability for users to upload their own 3D products and be shared the same way? The only solution I can think of right now is Sketchfab, however one has to download the app.

@albertjfoo Likely not on size.link, but for Shopify merchants they can upload 3D models of their products to their stores, and those won't require an app. You could technically just use a Shopify store page to host your non-commerce related models :P

This is awesome! Are there plans to include wall mounted boxes as well, for art prints for example?

@jvdmeij Wall mounted boxes are possible right now, but we may add presets to make it easier to do. For now just make the length x height the dimensions of the print, and give the width something like 0.1in. Keep in mind that wall tracking is hit or miss on current smartphones. If you don't have much detail on your wall (like a blank white wall) it can be hard for it to track. This is solved by LIDAR in the latest iPad, and likely will be in the new iPhones.
