Congratulations to Skignz, the winner of Pitch@IGNITE!

Congratulations to the winner of our first Pitch@IGNITE session - Skignz!

Here is a description of Skignz from their website:

"Skignz are signs and 3D objects placed in the environment to be viewed via a mobile device's camera, via a Geolocated Augmented Reality System. Using the free viewer app you'll see the skignz placed in the real world, using your device's GPS location to work out where they are. Groups of skignz and trigger points can even be arranged indoors for enhanced help and navigation."

To see Skignz in action, be sure to check out their website at skignz.com.
