Virtual Reality
Virtual reality (VR) is an artificial,
computer-generated simulation or
recreation of a real life environment or
situation.
 It immerses the user primarily by
stimulating their vision and hearing.
Virtual reality is possible through a
coding language known as VRML (Virtual
Reality Modeling Language)
VRML can be used to create a series of
images, and specify what types of
interactions are possible for them.

Augmented Reality
 Augmented reality (AR) is a technology
that layers computer-generated
enhancements atop an existing reality.
 AR is developed into apps and used on
mobile devices to blend digital
components into the real world.
 AR technology is used to display score
overlays on telecasted sports games
and pop out 3D emails, photos or text
messages.
 Leaders of the tech industry are also
using AR to do amazing and
revolutionary things with holograms
and motion activated commands.

Why We Need VR ?
 VR is used to create and enhance an
imaginary reality for gaming and
viewable entertainment. VR gaming
can make actions lifelike and turn real
environments into virtual landscapes.
 Virtual reality is also used for
simulated environments for
professionally based training - flight
simulators, language learning, and
other use cases.

Working Elements For VR Devices

Opinions differ on what exactly constitutes a true VR

experience, but in general it should include:
 Three-dimensional images that appear to be life-sized from
the perspective of the user.
 The ability to track a user's motions, particularly his head
and eye movements, and correspondingly adjust the images
on the user’s display to reflect the change in perspective.

Conclusion
• AR is far behind then Virtual reality in maturity Accuracy is required
for success of AR ,which is quite difficult.

• However still AR has great future as it promises better interaction

with real and virtual world.

• Accurate tracking and orientation is another limitation.

• For wearable augmented reality system, there are still enough

computing power to create stereo 3D graphics.

• The size of AR systems is yet another problem.
