Prynt pocket printer brings photos to AR life

Prynt pocket printer turns photos into AR video experiences, when viewed through the Prynt app.

Prynt makes an instant photo printer that pairs with your phone, which isn’t news. But when that photo is based on a video, or a Live Photo, the picture comes alive when it’s viewed through the Prynt app.

Prynt’s new Pocket printer is a smaller, more portable version of the original. It prints photos faster, and works well according to TechCrunch. It’s $149.99, which is a little steep for a gimmick like this. Just ask yourself: when augmented reality is hooked up to your brain, and you look out through your newly installed Cyber-Eyes, will you be sad if all your printed photos don’t move? Probably.

Weirdly enough, Prynt isn’t the only augmented reality printer on the market: Lifeprint launched in 2016 as well, and is only $129.99. I guess fragmentation will follow us into the future.
