Augmented Reality or AR is where artificial objects are simulated in the real world and incorporates or merges the information as part of the live view. The technology functions by enhancing a person’s concept of reality by overlaying the information over their view and merging it together. This perspective gives information and data of the object/scene viewed and in some cases, lets you manipulate the projected image to suit our needs.
Augmented reality is about using a portable device, such as a smartphone, to add a few extra details to what we see. Examples include Google Glass and Pokémon Go, both of which received lots of hype and have joined the annals of yesterday’s tech fads. Currently the most popular applications of AR are on Snapchat, where selfie lovers use smart filters to decorate and animate photos on the fly.
