Launch of the New £5 Note (Bank of England)

  • James Seaston
For the release of the new £5 note in 2016, Blippar partnered with the Bank of England to give the public a sneak preview. Users could scan any existing Bank of England banknote and instantly see "The New Fiver" appear right in the palm of your hand via Augmented Reality & Artificial Intelligence technologies. You could also take a selfie with The New Fiver, share it on social media and learn about the new security features built into the note in this partnership between Blippar and The Bank of England.
