The document discusses various types of augmented reality (AR), including markerless, marker-based, projection-based, and superimposition-based AR, explaining the workings of marker-based and projection-based AR. It contrasts augmented reality with virtual reality, highlighting that AR enhances the real world while VR creates a completely virtual environment. Additionally, it covers applications of the Internet of Things (IoT), the concept of big data and its analytics, and the challenges and potential threats associated with artificial intelligence.

Descriptive Type Questions:
1. List the different types of augmented reality. Explain the
working of any two. AR is of four types: a. Markerless AR b. Marker-based AR c. Projection-based AR d. Superimposition-based AR Marker-based Augmented Reality is also known as image recognition. To work, it needs a device with a camera, and a visual marker. When the camera reads the visual marker, the content linked to that marker gets displayed. Projection-based Augmented Reality involves projecting artificial light onto a real-world physical surface. The user can interact with this projected light. The AR senses any interaction by detecting changes in the projected light.
2. What is the difference between augmented reality and virtual
reality? Augmented reality and virtual reality are different from each other in the following ways:
Augmented Reality Virtual Reality
In AR, only the objects are In VR, the objects as well as the computer- generated. whole environment are computer-generated. Virtual objects are Virtual objects are placed in a superimposed over the real virtual world. world to enhance reality. The real world is visible to the The real world is not visible to user the user.
3. Write any three applications of internet of things.
IoT has a wide range of applications in our lives. Three examples are: a. IoT devices are being used to create smart homes and smart offices where even the smallest devices are connected to ensure that functions such as heating, airconditioning, and lighting are automated. b. Smart meters are used to monitor the energy usage in certain appliances. They also supervise system performance and stability and alert the user or manufacturer about any damages. c. IoT-based devices can be used for the construction of smart cities. They are also used by the military to collect data and information from sensitive border areas.
4. What is big data? What do you mean by big data analytics?
Big data refers to large volumes of complex data that cannot be processed using the usual data-processing applications. Big data analytics is the process of examining big data, to analyze market trends, understand customer preferences, and obtain other useful information.
5. Why is artificial intelligence a challenging field? Why is it seen
as a potential threat b some people? AI is a challenging field because for machines to act and behave like human beings, we need to feed a large amount of information about the world into them. Introducing the concepts of common sense, problem-solving, and reasoning are difficult tasks. The research associated with AI is highly technical and advanced. Some people believe that creating machines that are as intelligent as human beings might prove to be dangerous to humanity, if left unsupervised.
