Submerge into the world of parkour with Parkour Spotter, an innovative AR-powered app designed to teach, inspire, and connect parkour enthusiasts. Whether you’re just starting or a seasoned traceur, this platform helps you explore new spots and link up with a vibrant community. Users can learn techniques, discover location-based parkour lines, and share their experiences with others. With an intuitive profile system, posts and feedback are filtered to match your preferences—creating a tailored, interactive environment for everyone passionate about the movement art of parkour.
Parkour Spotter goes beyond static tutorials by incorporating an augmented reality experience where users can visualize parkour lines on-location. A virtual assistant named Ghost demonstrates moves, guiding first-timers through each line with clarity and precision. Users can contribute their own personalized routes and movesets, enhancing the communal aspect of the app. What sets it apart? It actively encourages real-life engagement and aims to build a diverse, connected, and motivated parkour community. With Parkour Spotter, you don’t just scroll—you meet, move, and make parkour a shared adventure.
