Show HN: Create notes and maps that live outdoors with web and AR
integration
Hey HN, We built Auglinn to make it easy for anyone to leave notes
outdoors and create interactive maps, using AR. You can: - Pin
notes or questions from your desktop that appear as AR notes
outside, or - Leave notes or questions while exploring outside with
AR, and view them later on your map via phone or desktop. My
favorite feature: creating maps by dragging and dropping photos
from your phone. The story? When I was a kid, my father visited
Universal Studios and captured it all on video. When I went there
in 2019, I found myself wondering if I was standing in the same
spots he had. This curiosity triggered my interest in leaving
traces on the world, and hence AR, and then Auglinn happened... It
began for individuals (hobbyists, influencers, anyone), but
professionals like urban planners, municipal employees, and some
tour guides also loved it, so we added SaaS features later.
Feedback is much appreciated.
