• History of augmented reality.
• What augmented reality is.
• How AR works
• Advantages and disadvantages of AR.
WHAT IS AUGMENTED REALITY?
Augmented reality, also known as AR, is a
technology that enhances the real world with digital
details like images, text and animation. Users can
experience AR through special goggles or via
smartphone or phablet screens.
• In AR, your device's camera blends an image of your
actual surroundings with a digital image so that they
merge into one reality. It starts with a camera-equipped
device –like smart glasses— loaded with AR software.
When a user points the device to an object, the
software recognizes it through computer vision
technology, which analyzes the video stream.
• The device then downloads information about the
object from the cloud, in much the same way that a
web browser loads a page via a URL. So what the user
sees, then, is part real and part digital.
HISTORY OF AUGMENTED REALITY
• In 1957, Morton
Heilig created the
Sensorama, which
invokes all the
senses of the user.
ADVANATAGES OF AUGMENTED
REALITY
1. AR is used in various
fields such as medical,
education, manufacturing,
robotics and
entertainment.

• It can be used by military
people without putting their
life in danger by way of
battle field simulation before
the actual war. This will also
help them in actual war to
take critical decisions.
DISADVANATAGES OF AUGMENTED
REALITY
1. It is expensive to develop the AR technology-based projects
and to maintain it. Moreover, production of AR based
devices is costly.
2. It requires basic learning to effectively use AR devices.
CONCLUSION
In conclusion AR is an immersive technology that extends the
reality we experience by blending the virtual and real world to
create an experience for the user.
