 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

• An AR system adds virtual computer generated objects, audio and

other sense enhancements to a real-world environment in real-time.

• These enhancements are added in a way that the viewer cannot tell the
difference between the real and augmented world.
 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

• AR should not be confused

for Virtual Reality (VR).

• VR is a completely
simulated computer
generated environment
where everything is under
the control of a system.

 PROBLEM STATEMENT

• AR faces some technical challenges regarding for example binocular view, high
resolution, color depth, luminance, contrast, field of view, and focus depth.

• Also before AR becomes accepted as part of user’s everyday life, just like a
mobile phone, issues like intuitive interfaces, costs, weight, power usage,
ergonomics, and appearance must also be addressed.
 RELEVANCE OF THE STUDY

• The study pointed out the various applications of AR. It also suggests
possible areas of improvements and also make future
recommendations that could improve on the existing technology.

 Historical Development (cont…)

• One of the next big developments in augmented reality was in 1974 by Myron
Krueger. The project was called, Videoplace, which combined a projection system
and video cameras that produced shadows on the screen.

• In 1990, a Boeing researcher named Tom Caudell coined the term “Augmented
Reality”.
 Historical Development (cont…)

• In 1992, Louis Rosenburg from

the USAF Armstrong’s Research
Lab created the first real
operational augmented reality
system, Virtual Fixtures.

• In 2000 when Hirokazu Kato from the Nara Institute of Science and
Technology in Japan created and released software called ARToolKit.

introduces the next iteration
of wearable augmented
reality, the HoloLens.

 APPLICATIONS OF AR

• Military: In combat, AR can

serve as a networked
communication system that
renders useful battlefield data
onto a soldier's goggles in real
time. • Figure 11: AR in Military
 APPLICATIONS OF AR

• Gaming: AR gaming uses the

existing environment and creates
a playing field within it. AR
games are typically played on
devices like smartphones, tablets
and portable gaming systems. • Figure 12: AR in Gaming
 APPLICATIONS OF AR

• Workplace: Big machines are

difficult to maintain because of their
multiple layers or structures. AR
permits users to look through the
machine as if it’s an x-ray, pointing
them to the problem right away.

 APPLICATIONS OF AR
• Other areas of AR application includes:

Music

Retail and Advertising

Broadcast and Live Events

Social Media…
 Mobile Augmented Reality (MAR)

• Simply put, mobile augmented reality is a type of AR that you can

take with you wherever you go.

• Portable augmented reality uses technology that you can move from
place to place.

• Mobile augmented reality is one of the most explosive growth areas

for AR applications currently.

FINDINGS AND DISCUSION
 FINDINGS AND DISCUSION
• Dangers of AR:

• Wearers of augmented reality glasses may become unaware of

surrounding dangers.

• Privacy issues, overload and over-reliance issues is the biggest danger

of AR.

• Certain guidelines need to be implied for users not to rely in AR

related products.
