1. “An
Outlook
on
Augmented Reality”

2. What is in the package?
• Augmented Reality
• It’s History
• Technology
• Inventions & Applications
• Future

3. The Definition
Augmented reality (AR) is a live direct
or indirect view of a physical, real-
world environment whose elements
are supplemented by computer-
generated sensory input.
Sounds | Graphics | GPS Data | Videos
So, basically it enhances one’s
perception of reality, by replacing the
real world with a simulated one in real
time.

Current Scenario
Google, Microsoft, Apple, Facebook and
other companies like them are building
stuff to change the future with AR and
VR.
