The planned AR tools will offer practical help. Campers could see virtual overlays in their real surroundings. This might show the best spots to pitch a tent on uneven ground. It could identify local plants or wildlife through the viewfinder. Finding the way back to camp after a hike might become simpler. The AR system could project directional markers onto the trail. Setting up complex Fjällräven tents might also get easier. Step-by-step AR instructions could appear over the physical tent parts.

This technology targets everyday campers. Sony and Fjällräven want it intuitive and useful. It should enhance the outdoor experience without adding frustration. The system will likely work with Sony’s existing AR eyewear platforms. Fjällräven will ensure the tech integrates smoothly with actual outdoor activities. Initial prototypes are being tested now. Feedback from experienced Fjällräven users is guiding development.
