Merchlar is an augmented reality (AR ) company based in Montreal , NYC, and Paris .

History
[ edit ]
Monumental Technologies was founded in December 2009 by Canadian Entrepreneur and AR&VR pioneer Awane Jones, his brother Bassil Silim-Jones and Eric St-Pierre.[3] They decided to create a mobile music community – the world's first augmented reality mobile platform for artists to create their own applications at zero cost.[4]
In 2011, the company evolved into Merchlar (the first augmented reality company in Canada) , a digital agency that powers augmented reality & virtual reality and offers interactive marketing solutions[buzzword ] to companies such as Universal Pictures, Twitter, Alliance Films ,[5] [6] Bell , Desjardins Group , Montreal International Jazz Festival , University of Maryland , and World Conference on Information Technology (WCIT).[7] [8] [9]
One year after the agency was formed, the Contest of Quebec Entrepreneurs named Merchlar Best New Technology Company in April and granted the company Award/Coup de Coeur Contest in the following May. In June, Awane Jones and Bassil Silim Jones were selected by the Canadian Youth Business Foundation (CYBF) to represent the official Canadian delegation at the G20 Young Entrepreneur Summit (G20 YES) in Mexico City .[10]
Since 2010, Merchlar created over 100 AR/VR solutions[buzzword ] for its clients globally. Through the front camera lens of a smart device, users are able to use their cell phones or digital device to scan their surroundings and find out live information on the spot.[11]
