AUGMENTED REALITY
WHAT IS AUGMENTED REALITY?
Augmented reality devices aim to enhance the real world by populating it with additional digital content that blends seamlessly into our environment. With augmented reality, your vision of the world around you is not obstructed by a head mounted display like it is with Virtual Reality, where your view obscured by an entirely digital environment. Because of this, augmented reality offers many benefits as a platform for interactive collaborative learning as well as methods for supplementing the world around us with additional information.
