Gorillaz AR concert in London and New York backed by Google tech

The virtual band Gorillaz will perform a concert in NYC and London in the latest location-based augmented reality (AR) experiment. Before the release of their 8th studio album titled “Cracker Island,” the Grammy award-winning group will perform their new single “Skinny Ape” as skyscraper-sized virtual avatars.
The concert takes place this weekend, at Times Square in New York City on December 17 at 2:30 p.m. ET and in Piccadilly Circus on December 18 at 2:00 p.m. GMT. Gorillaz’s “live” performance will be accessible via the free app Gorillaz Presents, available on Android and iOs. After the event, users can watch the virtual concert in-app at any time.
Google hasn’t released its AR glasses yet, but the tech company is experimenting with the technology through mobile tools. CNET reported that the virtual concert would use Google’s location-based AR tool, which was introduced at a conference earlier this year. The tool relies on Google Maps data and GPS coordinates to overlay persistent AR in the physical world. According to VR Scout, for the Gorillaz concert, Google will use the ARCore Geospatial API, which enables developers to link digital content to real-world locations on Google Street View.
Gorillaz’s musical AR event will blend virtual features with the physical space, immersing the audience in an innovative mixed-reality experience.
