What is Augmented Reality (AR)

1.

The technology that supplements (combines) the real world with virtual objects (computer-generated) that appear to coexist in the same space as the real world. The virtual scene or ambience generated by the computer is designed to enhance the user’s sensory perception of the world that they are seeing or interacting with.

Augmented reality (AR) is a term for a live direct or an indirect view of a physical, real-world environment whose elements are augmented by computer-generated sensory input, such as sound or graphics. It is related to a more general concept called mediated reality, in which a view of reality is modified (possibly even diminished rather than augmented), by a computer.

Augmented Reality (AR) is the technology that integrates digital information with the real world in a way that enhances graphics, sounds and 3D objects over the natural objects. AR technology focuses on the enriched experiences of the users, presenting visual information complementary of the natural environment through users’ devices. The digital augmented content interacts with the user actions as most of the time the AR content is touchable and quite responsive on user’s input.

The term augmented reality was thought to be coined in the early nineties by Thomas Caudell, at the time senior principal scientist at the computer services division of Boeing. The verb augment refers to the action of adding to something in order to make it more substantial. It derives from the Latin augere meaning 'to increase'. The computer science world’s definition of augmented reality (AR) is: the interaction of superimposed graphics, audio and other sense enhancements over a real-world environment that’s displayed in real-time. It is related to a more general concept called mediated reality. In fundamental terms, the expression refers to a simple combination of real and virtual (computer-generated) worlds. Given a real subject, captured on video or camera, the technology 'augments' (= adds to) that real-world image with extra layers of digital information such as sound, video, graphics or GPS data. As a result, the technology functions by enhancing one’s current perception of reality. Augmentation is conventionally in real-time and in semantic context with environmental elements. With the help of advanced AR technology (e.g. adding computer vision and object recognition) the information about the surrounding real world of the user becomes interactive and digitally manipulable.
