2. WHAT IS IMMERSIVE TECHNOLOGY?
2
Objective: To enable experiential learning
without actually engaging the
equipment by combining kinesthetic,
auditory and visual experiences
• Technology that emulates a physical
world
• Users can look in any direction and still
see reality
• Situation specific guidance can be
Augmented on real world
• Blurs the line between physical and
digitally simulated worlds

TYPES OF IMMERSIVE TECHNOLOGY
360 degree 3D Videos:
Allows users to explore 360 degree
view of machinery
Modelled Turbine working
principles, assembly,
disassembly of various
components of Turbine using
360 degree 3D (20 minute
module) 3

4.  VR is the computer-generated
simulation of a three-dimensional
image or environment that can be
interacted with in a seemingly real or
physical way by a person using
special electronic equipment, such as
a helmet with a screen inside or
gloves fitted with sensors.
 Participant is completely shut out
from the rest of the world while being
surrounded by content all around
VR

Standalone VR Headsets: (Headset)
• Oculus GO
• Oculus Quest
PC Powered VR Headsets: (Headset + Powerful PC)
• Oculus Rift
• HTC Vive Pro
• HP Reverb

5.  Technology that superimposes a
computer-generated image on a
user's view of the real world, thus
providing a composite view.
 Overlaying / Augmenting virtual
content on to the physical
environment.
 Virtual Content -> 3D Models,
Images, Icons, etc.,
 Camera is the main hardware used to
generate AR output.
 Eg. Angry Birds
 AR Devices:
Camera, Display, Sensors
 1. Smartphones --> Android, iOS
 2. Smart Glasses -->
 3. Headup Displays (HuD)
 4. Holographic devices
Augmented Reality (AR):

TYPES OF IMMERSIVE TECHNOLOGIES
Augmented Reality (AR):
• A technology where digital
images are presented on top of
the real world
• Smart mobiles can be used

8.  Mixed reality is the next wave in
computing followed by mainframes,
PCs, and smartphones.
 Mixed reality is a blend of physical
and digital worlds, unlocking natural
and intuitive 3D human, computer,
and environmental interactions.
 A combination of AR and VR
 Devices:
 1. Microsoft Holo Lens 2
 2. Jio Glass
