INTRODUCTION
What is Augmented Reality (AR) ?
Augmented Reality is a field of computer research which deals with combination of reality
with computer generated data.
AR is the real time delivery of digital information to enhance or enable a geographical and
physical experience.
AR allows to superimpose 3D content at real time.

BASIC SYSTEM AND WORKING PRINCIPLE
Miligrams Reality-Virtuality Continuum(1994)
MIXED REALITY
REAL ENVIRONMENT AUGMENTED REALITY AUGMENTED VIRTUALITY VIRTUAL ENVIRONMENT
Miligram coined the term Augmented Virtuality to identify systems which are mostly
synthetic with some real world imagery added such as texture mapping video onto virtual
objects.
Milgram (1994) proposes that the distinction between terms real and virtual can be
measured by three aspects, depending on whether one is dealing with real or virtual
objects, real or virtual images, and direct or non-direct viewing of these objects. These are
(a) Reproduction Fidelity
(b) Extent of Presence Metaphor
(c) Extent of World Knowledge
HISTORY
The beginnings of AR, as we define it, date back to Sutherlands work in the 1960s,
which used a see-through HMD to present 3D graphics. However, only over the past
decade has there been enough work to refer to AR as a research field.
In 1997, Azuma published a survey that defined the field, described many problems, and
summarized the developments up to that point.
Since then, ARs growth and progress have been remarkable.

Components
Here are the three components needed
to make an augmented-reality
system work:
Display
Tracking system
Mobile computing power
HOW DOES IT WORKS ?
Basically, An AR system:
combines real and virtual objects in a real environment;
registers (aligns) real and virtual objects with each Other; and
runs interactively in three dimensions and in real time.
Using a mobile application, a mobile phone's camera identifies and
interprets a marker, often a black and white barcode image. The software
analyses the marker and creates a virtual image overlay on the mobile
phone's screen, tied to the position of the camera. This means the app works
with the camera to interpret the angles and distance the mobile phone is
away from the marker.
TYPES OF DISPLAY
Of all modularities in human sensory input, sight, sound or touch are currently the senses that AR
systems commonly apply. The basic display modules are as follows :
VISUAL DISPLAY
There are four major classes of AR display.
(a) Video see through display
(b) Optical see through display
(c) Virtual retinal systems
(d) Projector based AR
AURAL DISPLAY
HAPTIC DISPLAY
IMPLEMENTATION FRAMEWORK
To implement there are four things that we require to do
First, find users location
Second find users orientation (view)
Third generating information
Fourth augmenting it to users view
Find users location Generate data
Find users orientation (view) Augment generated

data to users view
Augmented Reality vs. Virtual Reality
Augmented Reality Virtual Reality
System augments the real world Totally immersive environment
scene
Senses are under control of system
User maintains a sense of presence
in real world
Need a mechanism to feed virtual
Needs a mechanism to combine world to user
virtual and real worlds
Hard to register real and virtual Hard to make VR world interesting

ADVANTAGES OF AR
Can increase knowledge and information

People can share experiences with each other in real time over long distances
Games that provide an even more "real" experience
Things come to life on people's mobile
Form of escapism
DISADVANTAGES OF AR
Spam and Security
Social and Real-Time vs. Solitary and Cached
UX (User Experience): Using AR can be inappropriate in social situations.
Openness: Other people can develop their own layers of content to display
Fatigue and eye strain
ISSUES
Performance Issues
Real time processing of images can be a challenge and often can slow down
augmented reality systems.
Interaction Issues
Users within a mixed environment because of augmented reality have difficulties
interacting with the environment as normal.
Alignment Issues
People working in an augmented reality are more sensitive to alignment errors.
Proper calibration and alignment with the reference frame of the world is crucial.
Limitations
Accurate tracking and orientation
For wearable augmented reality system, there are still not enough computing power
to create stereo 3D graphics
The size of AR systems is yet another problem.

APPLICATIONS
Once researchers overcome the challenges that face them, augmented reality will likely pervade
every corner of our lives. It has the potential to be used in almost every industry, including:
EDUCATION
MILITARY
ENTERTAINMENT & GAMING
ROBOTIC OPERATIONS
MAINTAINANCE
NAVIGATION
FUTURE ENHANCEMENTS
Expanding a PC screen to real environment..program windows & icons appear as
virtual devices in real space & are eye or gesture operated, by gazing or pointing.
Enhanced media application ,like pseudo holographic virtual screens, virtual

surround cinema.
Replacement of cell phones: eye dialing, insertion of information directly into

environment.
Conclusion
Augmented reality will further blur the line between what's real and what's computer
generated by enhancing what we see, hear, feel and smell.
Augmented reality is another step further into the digital age as we will soon see our
environments change dynamically either through a Smartphone, glasses, car windshields and
even windows in the near future to display enhanced content and media right in front of us.
This has amazing applications that can very well allow us to live our lives more
productively, more safely, and more informatively.
