SUK4 Part2 Henry INTRODUCTION CAJ

Augmented reality (AR) is not a futuristic dream anymore, it is here now, it is increasingly penetrating every sphere of our life! That's why this topic has caught my attention. Augmented reality is cutting-edge technology that allows for a digitally enhanced view of the real world, connecting you with more meaningful content in your everyday life. This new technology blurs the line between what's real and what's computer-generated by enhancing what we see, hear, feel and smell. On the spectrum between virtual reality, which creates immersive, computer-generated environments, and the real world, augmented reality is closer to the real world. Augmented reality adds graphics, sounds, haptic feedback and smell to the natural world as it exists. Both video games and cell phones are driving the development of augmented reality. Everyone from tourists, to soldiers, to someone looking for the closest subway stop can now benefit from the ability to place computer-generated graphics in their field of vision. Augmented reality is changing the way we view the world - or at least the way its users see the world. Augmented reality has many applications, and many areas can benefit from the use of AR technology. AR was first used for military, industrial, and medical applications, but was soon applied to commercial and entertainment areas. Augmented reality helps us to perceive the world to the greater extend. So I would like to draw your attention to some mind-blowing things augmented reality is about to bring into our lives.
