Aap! - Alternative Advertising Possibilities

Aap!Motion - the large format lenticular panel by Aap!Global was recently featured on Canal13 Cable Chile on the Show “Nuevamente - Genios Criolles” - a 45 minute documentary series featuring the work of some of Chile’s most interesting, innovations and contributions. A series of 10 shows, 1 episode covered the work of Miguel Lagos, Aap!Global’s Physicist and inventor of the Aap!Motion, lenticular technology. Developed and installed as a low cost, simple in-tunnel subway advertising platform, the technology is also used today in pedestrian motion panels for advertising, art, and other visual effects.

We are working on getting a copy of the clip up on YouTube, but in the mean time we invite you to read more information on Aap!Motion - Pedestrian Motion Panels.

Aap!Global Presented @ Pecha-Kucha, San Francisco August 29th!

Aap!Global’s Robert Patterson presented on the intersection between grafitti and advertising - focusing on the fun interplay between the new and the competition they hold for impression and impact.

Aap!Motion - FAQ

Where do I start?

Lost - we recommend the following introduction to Aap!Motion - Pedestrian Motion Panels

What is Aap!Motion?

Aap!Motion is a new communication medium from Aap!Global that creates animated motion pictures through the use of static photo frames WITHOUT the need of complex electronics displays or moving parts. Sequential frames from any film clip can be overlain in a precise fragmented manner that, when seen through a specially designed optic lens, generates motion picture animation to the enjoyment of any viewer in motion.

What are the components of Aap!Motion?

Aap!Motion consists of only 2 core elements - an optic lens made from strong acrylic plastic, designed to withstand outdoor environments and a printed picture, generated using an algorithm to separate and overlay the frames. Aap!Motion boxes can be made to any size, length or dimension.

Aap!Motion is simple and requires only the following:

Lens - a unique acrylic or glass lens serves as the custom lenticular converging light to create the motion effect. The lens acts a single convex lens that magnifies light through a prism effect.

Sequential Prints Printed Using Unique Algorithmic Blending

Option Backlighting. Aap!Motion works in natural light with or without backlights.

Press Release: Aap!Motion: Lenticular Motion Panel Technology
Aap!Motion lens combine the best of motion advertising with out of home placement.

(Los Angeles - California).  Aap!Global, an alternative advertising technology developer today announced the launch of  Aap!Motion, its new lenticular motion panel technology that combines the best of motion advertising with out of home placement.

Aap!Motion is a new communication medium from Aap!Global that creates animated motion pictures through the use of static photo frames WITHOUT the need of complex electronics displays or moving parts. Sequential frames from any film clip can be overlain in a precise fragmented manner that, when seen through a specially designed optic lens, generates motion picture animation to the enjoyment of any viewer.

Aap!Motion aims to combine the advantages and enjoyment of motion picture media with the size and impact of out-of-home placement. Aap!Motion can be installed in a variety of scenarios and will be enjoyed by people in motion whether on foot, escalators, moving sidewalks or even inside subway cars.

Possible examples include placement at airports, malls, convention centers, cinemas, casinos, office hallways, arena/stadiums, subway tunnels, railroad tracks - anywhere with large amounts of moving pedestrian traffic.

Aap!Motion pedestrian motion panels work similarly to Aap!Global’s MetroVISTA subway tunnel advertising platform using the psychological phenomenon known as ‘persistance of vision.’ Aap!Motion works at any speed and is effective in natural or illuminated light, with or without backlighting.

Aap!Motion consists of only two core elements - an optic lens made from strong acrylic plastic, designed to withstand outdoor environments and a printed picture, generated using a patented algorithm to separate, compress, and overlay the frames. Aap!Motion boxes can be made to any size, length or dimension.

Aap!Global provides multiple procurement options from fully finished pedestrian motion panels made to any specifications or merely the lens and printed picture from a customer sourced media clip. The simplicity of the product lends itself to extreme flexibility in placement. Already installed traditional lightboxes or signage can even be retrofitted with an Aap!Motion lens and print material to create a unique animated billboard.
