Virtual, augmented, and mixed reality technologies provide immersive digital experiences by overlaying images on a user's view of the real world. Virtual reality uses headsets to completely replace visual perception of the real world, while augmented reality enhances the real world with digital content. Mixed reality fuses elements of real and virtual worlds together. These technologies have applications in healthcare like medical training, education like virtual classrooms, and the military for simulation training. As the technologies advance, they have the potential to revolutionize many industries by improving productivity, work processes, and learning.

1. VIRTUAL AND
AUGMENTED
REALITY

2. What is REAL?
How do you define real?
If you’re talking about what you can feel,
what you can smell, what you can taste
and see, then REAL is simply electrical
signals interpreted by your brain.
- Morpheus, The Matrix

3. If you trick your senses by
using any technology that
blurs the line between the real
and digital world, thereby
creating a sense of Immersion

IMMERSION
An illusory environment
that completely surrounds
you such that you feel
that you are inside it and
part of it

10. Health Care.
Healthcare virtual reality is a versatile
technology that can significantly impact
education and patient engagement ……

11. Education.
Virtual reality can unlock potential,
and giving students new ways to
experience learning
China – leading country in VR class
rooms.

12. Military
VIRTUAL REALITY has been
adopted by the military – this includes
all three services (army, navy and air
force) – where it is used for training
purposes.
A virtual reality simulation
enables them to do so but without the
risk of death or a serious injury.

13. VR Based Flying Training
USAF

processing system

16. Helmet Mounted
Display
Striker II – BAE Systems
It is a patented and legacy
technology of BAE but it applies the
same fundamentals of optics which are
now avaible in commercial world

17. Head Mounted
Display
Aero Glass, first to bring AR to
pilots providing an unparalleled 3D, 360°
experience in the cockpit, regardless of
the visibility.
Visualize terrain, navigation,
traffic (ADS-B), instrument, weather, and
airspace information with access to vital
safety procedures and protocols.

18. Quality Control and
Assurance
Accurate overlay enables fast
and cost-effective inspection of
components, tools and production
facilities
