What is Augmented Reality?
Do you know what is Augmented Reality and how it works? Nothing in the world stays as it is, it gets better with time. In the same way, no technology remains the same year after year, in that too changes keep on coming with time. And a similar technology that we discussed in an article is called Virtual Reality. But development was done in that too and Augmented Reality was born.
It is called the upgraded or next version of Virtual Reality, because it is better than that and is very capable of understanding things properly.
In virtual reality, you are in one place and whatever you are watching through the device, you feel that you are standing in that place right now. It virtually takes you to the place in which you get the experience of the real environment, but Augmented Reality is a slightly different technology and much better than that.
Augmented means to show something enhanced or improved. Reality is reality.
According to this, Augmented Reality means to make something better, so that it looks completely real.
What is Augmented Reality?
Augmented Reality is another form of virtual reality, in this technology a computer generated environment can be created matching the environment around you.
In simple language, a virtual scene is created by connecting another virtual world with the environment around you, which looks real.
This is also similar to virtual reality, but it will advance your eyesight by keeping you in your own world. That is, you will not be able to tell the difference between the real world and the virtual world.
How to use Augmented Reality
It is also used in any app or game about which I told you above. But we will know about how we can use AR in real life.
Recently, news of Apple Glass has come to the fore, about which I told you in the previous article. These are Augmented Reality Goggles which are going to be launched in the market soon.
In this, the company will provide you only the top frame and you can fit any glass in it according to you. Meaning that even if you have a number goggle, you can still apply the frame of Apple glass by keeping the glass wheel. Which will look like a normal glasses.
After wearing Apple Glass, you will be able to access the features of the mobile in Glass.
For example, if you are going somewhere or walking on the way, then on the screen of the goggle you will see the arrows of where you want to go.
If the bus is coming in front of you, then its distance, from where they are coming and being told, all these things will be visible that too in a digital way.
If you want to know about something, then its entire model will stand in front of you and you will be able to see it by rotating it in 360 degrees. Along with this you will also get his information.
To know the design of the building etc.
How does Augmented Reality work?
The way Augmented Reality works depends on three things.
Motion tracking – When you turn on the camera of your phone, the gyroscope is also on with the room. Gyroscope is a sensor which is usually present in every phone. This gyroscope sees the position of your phone and knows your position and how many degrees your phone is tilted. This allows Augmented Reality to assist in motion tracking.
Light estimation – The sensor of your device measures the surrounding light. It also creates a shadow of the shapes of Augmented Reality. Due to this, the characters of Augmented Reality look exactly like real.
Flat Surface – Augmented Reality is able to do its work only after finding a flat surface in the environment. If you try to use it in a rough place you will fail. It needs a flat surface so that it can set up its model and interact with you.
use of augmented reality
In today's time, Augmented Reality is being used in many fields.
Digital gaming - The trend of digital gaming is becoming very popular. These days, there are less toys and more game consoles in the hands of children.
This trend is growing very fast and is affecting everyone. In such a situation, along with the technology in gaming, the game has also started developing. Now people want to live the game rather than playing the game. In such a situation, game companies are also engaged in using technology to meet the demand of their customers.
One such technology is Augmented Reality, which game companies have started using very quickly. Pokemon Go is a prime example of this.
Education – Education has also become a rapidly changing field. Technology in education works to simplify the subject. This makes it easy for the students. Today is the era of projectors, smart classes, in such a situation, Augmented Reality will make education more easy. In many places its use has also started. It will take some time for it to be used in education in India.
Military training- Augmented reality has started being used in military training as well. It is used in the practice of warfare. The army is made aware of everything there by showing a virtual battlefield. In such a situation, it has become an important part of the planning of the army.
Engineering Design – Augmented Reality is used as a model in engineering design. Actually, from this it is already known how the project will look after it is made. Be it any society or colony, everything can be planned with the help of Augmented Reality. From this it can be predicted how the society or project will look after it is formed.
Shopping – The use of Augmented Reality for shopping is very new. It is used to explain the product well. Nowadays people do not buy any product without testing it. Shopping companies got its treatment with the help of Augmented Reality. The product is well shown and its uses can be explained.
Medicine – It is used in medicine to test new doctors. Through this, methods and methods of treatment are explained to the medical students. This introduces the students to the methods of treatment without having to use a dead body.
Difference between Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality
- Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality are both virtual. Virtual meaning means to be virtual.
- Virtual reality is a technology that is used to show virtual images, virtual sounds and many other virtual things.
- Sight and sound are used to experience virtual reality.
- Virtual reality requires a VR headset.
- In Augmented Reality, a computer generated environment is created matching the environment around you.
- Augmented Reality can interact with the environment around you.
- All you need is your smart phone for Augmented Reality.
