Toronto park offers a futuristic way to order food using AR

Picture this: you’re relaxing in Trinity Bellwoods Park, Toronto (Canada), and you’re feeling hungry. Instead of using food delivery apps or waiting in long lines, you pull out your phone, and voilà! You’re greeted with floating ice creams, enticing food and drinks in 3D space, thanks to the WenuEats platform that lets chefs, bakers and culinary creators set up virtual storefronts. Stickers with QR codes are scattered around the park. Scan them with the Elysium app, and your phone transforms the park with realistic food and drinks, courtesy augmented reality (AR). Click on an item and it’s delivered to your spot in the park free of charge.
