Face AR for
EU Citizen Engagement

Augmented Reality face effects deployed on mobile to connect the European Commission with younger generations — speaking the language of the Snap generation.

The Challenge

The European Commission, as the executive body and guardian of the EU Treaties, has a mission to communicate the European Project to all citizens. But reaching younger generations through traditional channels was proving increasingly difficult — they needed to speak the digital-native language of social media and smartphone experiences.

The Solution

MoodMe deployed its Face AR SDK to power interactive augmented reality face effects within a mobile app experience. Citizens could transform their selfies with EU-themed face filters — painting the European flag on their faces in real time — and share across social platforms, creating organic viral reach and a new dialogue with the younger electorate.

The EU Snap Generation

MoodMe's real-time face tracking applies the EU flag as a photorealistic face paint effect — complete with the circle of stars — directly on the user's face via their smartphone camera. The experience runs natively on mobile with no lag, creating shareable moments that spread the European message organically.
