Tin is used as a coating on the surface of other metals to prevent corrosion. 'Tin' cans, for example, are made of tin-coated steel. Alloys of tin are commercially important in, for example, soft solder, pewter, bronze and phosphor bronze. Tin chloride (stannous chloride, SnCl2) is used as a mordant in dyeing textiles and for increasing the weight of silk. Stannous fluoride (SnF2) is used in some toothpastes.

Augmented reality is the integration of digital information with the user's environment in real time. Unlike virtual reality, which creates a totally artificial environment, augmented reality uses the existing environment and overlays new information on top of it.
