What is Augmented Reality? 

Augmented means to show anything by increasing or improving it. Reality is reality.

According to this, augmented reality means to make anything better, so that it looks absolutely real.

Augmented reality is another form of virtual reality, in this technology a computer-generated environment matching your surroundings can be created.

I understood in easy language, a virtual scene is created by connecting another virtual world with the environment around you, which looks real.

This too is similar to virtual reality but it will make your eyes advanced 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 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. A gyroscope is a sensor that is usually on every phone. This gyroscope observes the position of your phone, knows your position and to what degree your phone is tilted. This helps augmented reality in motion tracking.

Light estimation

Your device's sensor measures the light surrounding it. With this, he also creates a reflection of the sizes of augmented reality. This makes the characters of Augmented Reality look like Bikul Asli.
Flat surface - Augmented reality is able to work only after finding a flat surface in the environment. If you try to use it in a bumpy place you will fail. It needs a flat surface so that it can set up its model and interact with you.

Uses of augmented reality

Today, the use of augmented reality is being done in many fields.

Digital gaming

The trend of digital gaming is becoming increasingly prevalent. Nowadays children are seen playing less and game consoles are seen more.

This trend is growing very fast and is also affecting everyone. In such a situation, games are also being developed with technology in gaming. Now people do not want to play the game but want to live the game. In such a situation, game companies are also using technology to fulfill the demand of their customers.

One such technology is Augmented Reality, which game companies have started using very fast. Pokemon Go is a prime example of this.

Education

In today's era, very interesting means of providing education with the help of technology have become available, with the help of which students can easily learn new and difficult things with great interest. Today students study computers, projectors, and smart classes. In such a situation, this technology is making education even easier, in which the virtual model is shown in front of your eyes, which you are studying, that is, you are not only reading about something but learning by looking at that object. 

For example, suppose you are studying engineering and studying about an engine, then it would be great if you could read that engine as well as see it, not only that, if you want that engine now Opening can also be seen. All this is possible with the help of augmented reality, in which the virtual 3D modal of that engine is presented in front of your eyes.

Military training

Augmented reality has started to be used in military training as well. It is used in the practice of war. The army is made aware of everything thereby showing a virtual battleground. In such a situation, it has become an important part of military planning.

Engineering design

Augmented reality is used as a model in engineering design. Actually, it is already known what the project will look like after it is built. Be it a society or a colony, everything can be planned with the help of Augmented Reality. From this, it can be predicted what the society or project will look like.

Shopping

In today's era, people do not buy anything without testing it. In such a situation, this technology is proving to be a boon for shopkeepers and customers, in which the customer can easily check and then buy the goods virtually. For example, if the customer wants to shop for clothes, it is very boring to wear favorite clothes and check every time. 

With the help of this technology, customers can wear those clothes virtually and see how these clothes look on them. If you want to buy a sofa set, then you will definitely want to first check how that sofa set will look in your house. This is possible with augmented reality. In which you can find out how this sofa set will look at your house before buying a sofa. This allows customers to shop quickly and easily.

Treatment

Augmented reality is used in this field to train new doctors, in which doctors can learn about the methods of treatment using a virtual body. This will reduce the dependence of doctors on the use of the dead body.

Augmented reality used at home

Many of its applications are available at the Play Store, if you search Augmented Reality at the Play Store, you will find a lot of applications. You can use them from your Android phone.

Difference between virtual reality and augmented reality

Both virtual reality and augmented reality are virtual. Virtual meaning means virtual realization.

• Virtual reality is a technology that is used to show virtual images, virtual sound, and many other virtual things.
• Sight and sound are used to experience virtual reality.
• A VR headset is required for virtual reality.
• Augmented Reality creates a computer-generated environment that matches your surroundings.
• Augmented reality can interact with the environment around you.
• For augmented reality, all you need is your smartphone.
