Introduction to AR Technology
Augmented reality (AR) is a technology that combines virtual reality and real-world elements. It is an interactive experience that is created and viewed through a smartphone’s camera. The technology uses a combination of a device’s camera, GPS, 3D graphics, and sensors to overlay virtual objects on the real world. For example, the smartphone app Pokemon Go, which was released in 2016, enabled users to capture the Pokemon characters that were overlaid on the real world.
