HBO GO webAR
In 2020, we created a special WebAR (augmented reality) citylight campaign for our partner, HBO Hungary. The essence of the developed technology is that it can play the content running in the virtual space within a browser, therefore, users do not need to download a separate application. This results in higher conversions and a better user experience. The described solution has won the Aranypenge JCDecaux Special Innovation Award.
Our team provided full service in concept creation, creative and 3D design, defining UX processes in technology, and last but not least, the appearance and development of the final UI. Solving the interaction with the augmented reality from the UI and UX side, as well as setting up a subscription and emailing system for the sweepstakes attached to the campaign was a unique challenge.

Globus webAR
We immediately knew after our first meeting with the representatives of Globus, that we will do something unique, which was never seen in the Hungarian market before.
Next up, we conducted our market research and what we have found is, that the majority of these contests are based on unique codes hidden in the packaging or on the receipt that the participants have to upload to a microsite for instant prizes or they acquire a chance for winning the grand prize in the end lottery. We found this solution to be a bit lackluster, so we didn’t want to follow this methodology.
Talking about fun and excitement; the idea of creating a game popped up! We started to think about how we can create an actual game around a physical product. We ended up with augmented reality. This way we connect a virtual game with a product that actually exists. We got on track and started to develop a concept, where the customers can play with the cans on their smartphones and participate in a contest with others in augmented reality. The experience itself is a simple basketball-like game where they have to throw vegetables into the can collecting as many points as possible in under 60 seconds.
Okay, it’s a good start, we are supporting the sales with a never-before-seen contest and we have a game that can actually interest our younger target group. The final thing, make a buzz and let our audience be aware of our actions. As it’s a new concept, we wanted to educate the people how they can play. We knew that we needed a bigger frame, as the cans are small. Citylights seemed the best choice since we have the space to explain how the game works. People are standing around them, waiting for the public transport, so they have a few minutes for a quick game in the hope of winning as they could run for the main prize without buying a product. Also, we used social media channels for advertising and better targeting with an educational video about the augmented reality contest.

Cleango
The Cleango, also known from the Sharks series, is a mobile-based car washing service, that creates a platform for users to assign a washer to their parked car. With the ‘on the spot’ method, Cleango emphasizes environmentally friendly ways of washing the client’s car.
During the implementation of the UX and UI design of the brand-new application of Cleango, we have refined various washing order processes (location, car selection, time option), including follow-up methods, live status reporting, complex checkout processes, and a credit and coupon payment as well.

Takarék Business Assistant
In cooperation with Takarék Business Assistant, we have redesigned the online invoicing and administration system called Takarék Business Assistant, which helps and supports the financial administration of micro and small enterprises. The financial assistant performs completely electronic invoicing, archiving, partner management, and takes over the burden of mandatory tax authority reporting.
During the refinement, we created desktop and mobile screen redesigns in line with the existing backend system. Starting with a rethought, transparent, well-structured menu system, significant UX optimizations have been achieved through simple, consequent interface structures and easily editable components.

Tanfolyamguru
The Tanfolyamguru is a course finder and mediator platform that allows the user to choose from and apply for a variety of vocational or other training courses.
During the responsive or so-called mobile-first design, we have devoted particular attention to the easy interoperability of the connections between the discovery page, the central search page, and the course distribution and sub-page(+application). With the introduction of the complex filtering system, we also established the possibility of quick filtering based on location and further parameterizability and scalability.
Aside from the comprehensive, themed contact/FAQ page, we have developed and implemented various blog pages, promotional and advertising interfaces, and interfaces filled with general content for our customers on both mobile and desktop screens.

For what projects/services did your company hire 5mart Studio?
We cooperate with 5mart Studio in case of complex digital banking projects, where we had outsourced most of the UX/UI tasks and the complete procedure of animation video producing.
