The New York Times has launched a groundbreaking new app that is set to redefine the future of journalism. This innovative tool brings augmented reality (AR) into the physical world, allowing readers to experience news in a more immersive and interactive way. Just a month after TIME magazine introduced its AR edition, the New York Times is now taking the next step by integrating AR into its print publications, pushing the boundaries of what print media can achieve.
According to the New York Times, the AR-enhanced article "extends the story beyond the screen by digitally placing real-world objects in your physical space. These objects—such as a boundary wall or artwork—can be explored up close, offering a more engaging and informative experience."
An image shows the New York Times using an AR application to bring the future of news to life.
This app allows users to point their iPhone or iPad camera at a printed page and summon 3D objects like a commemorative box, a vending machine, or even a 3D printer. You can move around these objects, place them on a table or floor, and even scale them up for a more detailed view.
But this isn't just about nostalgia. The app's purpose goes far beyond recreating old machines. Next week, the New York Times will publish an article about the Winter Olympics, which will let readers view athletes from multiple angles using the AR app. This is a bold and creative step that could change how we interact with print media, much like the previous AR issue did.
Another image highlights the New York Times' use of AR technology.
We've seen AR in magazines before, such as the NUSHU project by the Education and Children’s Center, which aims to make news more engaging for younger audiences. However, the New York Times is taking it to a whole new level by making AR a central part of the reading experience.
The newspaper describes AR as "a new way to move beyond abstract descriptions and into a more tangible, real-world experience. Stories about our three-dimensional world can be fully presented before you. Want to take a closer look at a sculpture? You don’t need to zoom in on your phone screen. Just walk up to it. To see different angles, you don’t have to swipe to the next image—you can simply follow it."
The growing enthusiasm for AR in print media is impressive, and it’s exciting to see how this technology could become a standard in the future of journalism. With each new development, the line between print and digital continues to blur, opening up endless possibilities for storytelling and reader engagement.
