Augmented reality (AR) , is a live direct or indirect view of a physical, real-world environment whose elements are augmented by computer-generated sensory input such as sound, video, graphics or GPS data. It is related to a more general concept called computer-mediated reality, in which a view of reality is modified (possibly even diminished rather than augmented) by a computer. Augmented reality enhances one’s current perception of reality, whereas in contrast, virtual reality replaces the real world with a simulated one.[1][2] Augmentation techniques are typically performed in real-time real time and in semantic context with environmental elements, such as overlaying supplemental information like scores over a live video feed of a sporting event.
2. What is Augmented Reality?
• Augmented reality (AR) is a field of computer research which deals with the
combination of real-world and computer-generated data.
3. AR is the future of how we will interact with digital
information

5. All AboutAugmentation
• Augmented reality (AR) is a live direct or indirect view of a physical, real-
world environment whose elements are augmented (or supplemented) by
computer-generated sensory input such as sound, video, graphics
or GPS data.
• As a result, the technology functions by enhancing one’s current perception ofreality.
• Augmentation is conventionally in real-time and in semantic context with
environmental elements
• Ex: sports scores on TV during a match.
