lifeAR – Larger Than Life
Share unique moments like Toto Wolff and Oliver Steil did, ask your friends to weigh in on everyday life decisions or simply get help with anything, from anyone, anywhere, anytime with lifeAR. Show – don’t just tell – using your smartphone to show the problem and get visual guidance for how to solve it.
Show exactly what you mean, visually guiding anyone through problem-solving steps by adding 3D pointers, augmented reality video calls.
- Take screenshots and record sessions – you can easily record a lifeAR session that is immediately stored on your photo gallery.
- 3D pointers and emojis – you can “mark” the display with arrows, note and highlights that make it easy for the other user(s) to follow.
- Multi-participant videocall – invite up to 6 participants to the call and share experiences or opinions with them.
- Security – Keep your AR video calls private and safe, protected by 256-bit end-to-end encrypted connections and industry-grade security.

A far-reaching branding and technology partnership
Additionally to prominent branding on both cars and driver’s racing suits, this partnership is centered around TeamViewer’s technology. Together we will deliver strong proof points for existing technologies and innovate new use cases for TeamViewer customers across all regions and segments.
Mercedes is already using TeamViewer for remote access and operations on the racetrack and in headquarters. Now TeamViewer will make the Mercedes teams even more efficient, with optimized remote operations and enhanced connectivity between team operations trackside and back at base, notably in terms of race support operations during testing and racing.
Significant opportunities:
- Position TeamViewer’s large product portfolio for IoT & asset management
- Augmented reality supported inspection, maintenance and technician training
- Augmented reality experience for fans that can’t attend the event
- Life customer engagement through chat and video with fanbase
- Behind the scenes reports – let fans get close to the drivers and crew
- Digitize F1 and act as role model for further use cases
