Augmented Reality"Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away. "

- Philip K Dick

Augmented reality vs Virtual reality

● Augmented reality is the real-time modification of perceived reality overlaying the modification over the real.

● Virtual reality is completely simulated reality not needing any bearing on real-time reality.

Hardware

● Necessary ○ Display

○ Camera

○ Computer

● Optional○ Sensors

○ Input

Display

● Projection

● Handheld

● Head mounted

● Glasses

● Contacts

● Retinal Display

Projection

Pros: ● Greater resolution than almost any of the other displays.

Cons:● Location constrained.

● Affected by light levels.

Handheld

Pros:● Access to technology

Cons:● Limited field of view

Head Mounted

Pros: ● Removes problems of light contrast that a projection unit has.

● Fast implementation for specific uses[1]

Cons:● Removes peripheral vision and you become constrained to the

camera's view.

Glasses

Pros:● Does not constrain the persons field of view

Cons:● The field of display is not able to work with the users full field of vision

Contacts

Pros:● No obstruction of users vision

Cons:● Having electrical circuitry so close to your eye.

Retinal Display

Pros:● Does not use any type of screen or led

Cons:● Bulkier than many others

Benefits of Augmented Reality

Improving education

● 3D object viewers from the Augmented Reality Development Lab (ARDL)

● More interactive● Benefits visual learners

Aid those with disabilities

● LookTel Recognizer and LookTel Money Reader

● Eye movement tracking● Qualcomm is working

on applications that will “help intellectually disabled workers”

Improvement of reality

● Refrigerators could write your shopping list for you

● Your house could change the environment of a room, to fit the circumstances

● Better display/access of relevant information

Video Games

● More social● Mobility is required● Google’s Ingress

Other benefits?

What would you use augmented reality for?

Cons of AR Technology

Distraction from REAL Reality

● Texting and driving is dangerous AND illegal

● AR would also be dangerous but much harder to make illegal and enforce

● Takes military personnel extensive training to look past HUD

● Pedestrians and AR GPS navigation

Privacy

● Much harder to maintain privacy

● Using AR facial recognition, a digital profile of an individual could be pulled up on anyone that can be seen

Advertising

● The amount of advertising that we have become accustomed to in our browsers would begin to appear in AR

● Billboards would be blank canvases and fill with custom content for individuals

● Looking at a book would bring up “you may also

like…”

Diminished Reality

●The flip side of AR is Diminished Reality●Could edit things out of reality that you don’t want to see●Could edit out homeless on the street to prevent yourself from not feeling guilt about not helping them

Bullying and Harassment

● AR bullying would be invisible to the school authorities

● The ‘kick me’ sign would instead be displayed through the AR tech

● Someone could find nude pictures of others who are walking by simply by looking at them
