- 13. The Goal of AR • Augmented reality aims to add information and meaning to a real object or place.
- 17. Effects • Increased transparency • Reduced privacy • Timely access to information • Ubiquitous access to data
- 18. Limitations • Hardware – Cell phone – GPS accuracy – Battery life • Standardization of the core components the AR markup object – Searchable, – location-aware, – federated, and – share structured metadata?

- Augmented Reality = Hollywood + Ordinary Reality
- Unlike virtual reality, augmented reality does not create a simulation of reality. Instead, it takes a real object or space as the foundation and incorporates technologies that add contextual data to deepen a person’s understanding of the subject. For example, by superimposing imaging data from an MRI onto a patient’s body, augmented reality can help a surgeon pinpoint a tumor that is to be removed. In this case, the technology used might include headgear worn by the surgeon combined with a computer interface that maps data to the person lying on the operating table. In other cases, augmented reality might add audio commentary, location data, historical context, or other forms of content that can make a user’s experience of a thing or a place more meaningful.
