KaviAR Tech Unveils App-Free AR and AI Tools for Optical Retail at SILMO Paris

At the recent SILMO Paris exhibition, French innovator KaviAR Tech showcased POESIAR and ARAI, app-free augmented reality and artificial intelligence solutions designed to enhance physical eyecare retail. POESIAR transforms static materials like posters and brochures into interactive multimedia experiences via QR codes, requiring no app downloads or technical teams. ARAI functions as a 24/7 virtual assistant projected through smartphone browsers, offering multilingual support in over 50 languages and intelligent lead qualification capabilities. The company highlighted these tools' relevance for Australian optical practices seeking to differentiate from online retailers by reducing adoption barriers such as cost and complexity. KaviAR Tech also provided an optical-specific demo of ARAI, dubbed "Max," allowing practitioners to experience the avatar's ability to guide customers through product information and answer preliminary questions directly within their real-world environment.
