A new augmented reality app lets you “try out” tattoos

Thinking about inking? Try before you buy...

Tattoos are expensive to acquire and even more expensive to remove. They also have the potential to looks pretty hideous if poorly conceived. A new application – available on iTunes – called 'Ink Hunter' lets you preview tattoos in real time without making the painful commitment. Users can edit, share, and create new designs, with friends or alone, and upload their favourite pieces to be stored or sent directly to tattoo artists. Now theres literally no excuse for bad body art. Ink Hunter requires iOS 8.0 or later for optimum results and is now compatible with iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. Android and Windows Phone versions are expected to be released soon. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v3rtxatKy0Y
