In my childhood, I must have dreamt many science fiction characters, while my teacher
was teaching science concepts, which were not brought into reality. They faded away
as dreams, as the years passed-by.
But, nowadays, due to the advancement of Science and Technology, every
child’s dream could be brought into Science reality, as I research on the new
emerging technology – Augmented Reality
What is Augmented Reality? – The Past
Augmented reality, also called Virtual Reality
is a study of conversion of a science-fiction
concept into a science-based reality. In the
beginning, Augmented reality, especially for UX
designers (User Experience Designers)
could only be a dream of working on design
projects, but today things have changed and
augmented reality is even available on the mobile
handset.
Augmented reality is a view of the real, physical world in which elements are
enhanced by computer-generated input. These inputs may range from sound
to video, to graphics to GPS (Global Positioning System).
