AI Drawing Mobile App

What is AR Drawing, and how did it originate?

AR Drawing (Augmented Reality Drawing) is a method that uses your smartphone camera and AR technology to project an image onto real-world surfaces, allowing you to easily trace it onto paper, walls, or other objects. The concept originated in June 2012 by Andrey Drobitko (Adno), a mural artist and founder of Sketchar. Sketchar officially released the first AR Drawing app in 2016.

​
