Beefeater’s Spirit of London connected a 3D billboard at Westfield Stratford with a Snapchat Lens. Scanning its Snapcode extended the scene into the surrounding skyline, revealing a floating Big Ben and a Beefeater bottle.
A later iteration used sky segmentation to introduce a London Underground journey overhead. The lens could work beyond the original location; UNIT9 reported 400,000 users at the time of its case study.
