Augmented Reality (AR)

Augmented Reality?

Wiki defines it as,

Augmented reality (AR) is a term for a live direct or indirect view of a physical real-world environment whose elements are merged with (or augmented by) virtual computer-generated imagery - creating a mixed reality. The augmentation is conventionally in real-time and in semantic context with environmental elements.

In short, Augmented reality is a field of computer research which deals with the combination of real-world and computer-generated data.

Unlike virtual reality, augmented reality does not create a simulated reality.
