AR Technologies

Projection Augmented Reality, sometimes also referred to as “spatial Augmented Reality,” is a method of delivering digital information to users within a stationary context. Target objects and users can move...

Nearly a decade ago, when the first camera phones (mobile phones with built-in cameras) were released and began to reach the mass market, new services and software began to emerge....

Enterprise AR developers must monitor advances in workflow management software and platforms. There are hundreds of relevant research projects that shed light on the future use of Augmented Reality in workflow....

Information technologies are more efficient when integrated into a larger workflow than when used in isolation, requiring separate system design, user training, activity tracking and maintenance. The deeper the integration...

As mentioned in the article on enterprise AR display technologies, there are many ways for users to control and interact with AR-assisted applications. Touch or tactile interfaces are now ubiquitous on...

In conditions where Augmented Reality visualization is unsuitable (e.g., bright light, sight-impaired user), auditory and haptic AR experiences could be valuable to enterprises. However, such conditions are rare by comparison...

Once the Augmented Reality experience is published and the user’s context is detected, the assets for an AR experience must be delivered to the user’s device or to a fixed...

As discussed in the Authoring Technologies section, planning the extraction of features of interest from real-world targets is part of AR project creation. Once the project is implemented and available on the...

Authoring Augmented Reality experiences involves selecting and/or preparing digital assets, specifying physical-world targets with which they will be associated and specifying the interactions between the digital assets and physical targets....
