The document discusses augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR), outlining their definitions, core components, types, applications, and benefits. AR overlays digital content onto the real world, enhancing user interaction, while VR immerses users in a simulated environment, allowing for complete engagement. Both technologies have various applications across industries such as gaming, education, healthcare, and retail, each with different hardware and software requirements.

Introduction
Augmented Reality superimposes
information such as text, image, sound,
etc. on the real world.AR enhances the
physical world by integrating digital
elements into the user's real-world
environment, providing an interactive
and enriched experience.

4. VR
Introduction
Virtual Reality (VR) is a technology
that immerses users in a completely
simulated, computer-generated
environment. VR replaces the real
world with a virtual one, offering a fully
immersive experience. Through
specialized hardware, such as headsets
and controllers, users can interact with
this artificial environment as if it were
real.

6. Aspect Augmented Reality (AR) Virtual Reality (VR)
User Experience Users see the real world with added digital elements. Users are fully immersed in a virtual environment, cut off
from the real world.
Hardware Needed Smartphones, tablets, smart glasses, headsets. VR headsets, motion controllers, and tracking sensors.
Interaction with Real
World
Users interact with both real and virtual elements
simultaneously.
Users interact solely with virtual objects and
environments.
Applications Retail ,education, navigation, maintenance, tourism, gaming. Gaming, education, healthcare (surgery simulations),
training, virtual tourism, entertainment.
Hardware Cost Typically lower, as it can work on smartphones or simpler
devices.
Higher cost, requiring specialized headsets, high-
performance computers, or consoles.
Example Devices Microsoft HoloLens, Google Glass, smartphones (AR apps). Oculus Rift, HTC Vive, PlayStation VR, Valve Index.

Display Devices:
Smartphones, tablets, smart
glasses.
Computer Vision:
It identifies objects,
environments, and markers to
overlay relevant digital content
VR Headsets:
Devices like the Oculus Rift,
PlayStation VR provide the
visual experience by covering
the user's eyes and ears.
Game Engines:
Platforms like Unity or
Unreal Engine used to
create VR environments to
handle complex 3D
graphics.

Cameras:
AR devices use cameras to
capture the user's
environment.
3D Modeling:
AR applications use 3D
models to create realistic
visuals of virtual objects.
VR Controllers:
VR controllers allow users to
interact with the virtual
environment.
Graphics Rendering:
The software translates 3D
models and environments
into visual scenes.

Processors:
High-performance
processors enable real-time
rendering of AR content as
responsive.
User Interfaces:
AR enhances user interaction
with the digital content using
gestures, touch, or voice
commands.
Tracking Systems:
Cameras or external sensors
track the user’s movement and
translate it into the virtual
environment.

10. Types Of AR
Marker AR
This type uses predefined
markers (like QR codes)
Marker less AR
This type does not rely on
markers uses environment
Data
Projection AR
It projects digital content
on
surfaces

Non-immersive VR
This type refers to
simulations that users
interact through a
computer screen
Semi-immersive
VR
This experience provides a
partial virtual
environment.
Fully immersive
VR
users are completely
surrounded by the virtual
environment Using VR
headsets.
