MagiPeeps®
Customisable, expressive AR avatars that let people share emotions through characters with identity.

- 3D characters
- Animation
MagiPeeps® are characters you design yourself, from facial features and hair to outfits, colours and textures. In augmented reality they carry your expressions: they dance when you are happy and comfort you when you are not, in chats, in meetings and in the room around you.

Put a MagiPeep in your room.
Scan, tap, and place it on your desk.
On a phone, the button opens straight into your camera. On a computer, scan the code to open the same view on your phone. It’s the quickest way to see what we do: the website is the demo.
Under the hood
Explained from the system’s own source code.
Your face drives the Peep
ARKit face tracking on the TrueDepth camera reads your expression every frame and plays it onto the character’s blend shapes: smiles, blinks, raised brows.
Make it yours
Characters, parts, textures and backgrounds come from a cloud catalogue, so new looks reach everyone without an app update.
Meet in rooms
In a live room every participant appears as their own Peep. Presence and face frames travel in real time, so you see each other react.
Safe accounts
Sign in with Apple, email or as a guest. Every table is locked to its owner, and you can delete your account from inside the app.
