Introduction

Augmented reality will truly cange te way we view te

world- (icture yourself walking or driving down te street-
Wit augmented.reality displays/ wic will eventually look
muc like a normal pair of glasses/ informative grapics will
appear in your 0eld of view/ and audio will coincide wit
watever you see- "ese enancements will %e refresed
continually to re1ect te movements of your ead- In tis
article/ we will take a look at tis future tecnology/ its
components and ow it will %e used-
Augmented Reality

Augmented Reality is a
0eld of computer researc
wic deals wit
combination of reality
wit computer generated
data-

It is still in an early stage of

researc and development-
possi%ly %y te end of tis
decade/ we will see te 0rst
mass.marketed
augmented.reality system
An augmented reality system is one that
Combine real n virtual world
Is interactive in real time
Is registered in D.
Augmented Reality System
Augmenting Our World

"e %asic idea of augmented reality is to

superimpose grapics/ audio and oter sense
enancements over a real.world environment in
real.time-

)ounds pretty simple- 2esides/ haven't television

networks been doing that with graphics for
decades?

"ese systems display grapics for only one point of

view- 3ext.generation augmented.reality systems
will display grapics for eac viewer4s perspective-

A weara%le computer is a %attery powered

Virtual reality creates

immersive/ computer
generated environments
wic replaces real worldB

Here te ead mounted

displays %lock out all te
external world from te
viewer and present a view
tat is under te complete
control of te computer-

Virtual reality serves for at

totally immersive
environment - "e senses are
under control of te system-

"e user is completely

immersed is an arti0cial world
and cut o' from real world-

Augmented reality is closer

to te real world- augmented

# smell to te natural world/
as it exists-

"us it augments te real

world scene in suc a way
tat te user can maintain a
sense of presence in tat
