E-learning

Augmented Reality is software that deals with the combination of real-world and computer-generated data (virtual reality)
AR blends computer graphics with the real world
Live video imagery ‘augmented’ with computer generated graphics
Software for:

3D reconstruction
Fiduciary markers or GPS/compass
Image registration
Structure from motion
Video tracking

in real time
