Introduction to Augmented Reality (AR)


Introduction to Augmented Reality (AR)

AR is an enhanced version of reality. It’s an integration of digital information with the User's environment in real time. AR is different from Virtual Reality (VR). Virtual Reality creates an artificial environment and Augmented reality uses the existing environment and overlays new information on top of it. Its where live direct or indirect views of physical real-world environments are augmented with superimposed computer-generated images over a user's view of the real-world, thus enhancing one's current perception of reality. It’s how you work, play and connect with the world.
AR is rapidly growing technology, because it brings the objects to reality.
Key Components to Augmented Reality Devices
  •      Sensors and Cameras
  •      Projection
  •      Processing
  •      Reflection

Many of the top augmented reality companies are seeing great success by helping seasoned industries adopt and apply this new technology for their unique business needs. A strong example of augmented reality in use is in the field of healthcare. From a routine checkup, to a complex surgical procedure, augmented reality can provide immense benefits and efficiencies to both patient and healthcare professional.
In manufacturing industries, we can use AR technology for service tool applications, to describe the product usage, datasheets, limitations, Installation etc. This reduces the complexity for the Customer to use the product. Whenever he has some issue with product, service technician can fix it with the use of this tool. It reduces the time also. Thanks for reading this article.

Introduction to latest technologies such as IoT, IoE, IIoT,WoT

Hi Everyone, Now-a-days, we are hearing terms such as IoT, IoE, IIoT, WoT. In this article i am trying to explain what exactly these terms means.  Let me start with fancy word called IoT (Internet Of Things). Its a world of things (such as vehicles, home appliances, any physical device) connected.  These devices embedded with firmware, software, electronics, sensors, actuators and connectivity which makes any physical device intelligent, so that they can talk with each other. Do you want to know why? I will be explaining more details in my next article. IIoT is Industrial IoT, i.e using IoT in manufacturing industries. This brings brilliant machines together, advanced analytics and many more. It has great potential to change the way how the Industry works and it enables M2M machine-to-machine communication. Next article i will tell some real time applications of this. IoE is Internet of Everything where people, process, data and things(these are ...

Introduction to Deep Learning

Deep Learning is a type of machine learning in which a model learns to perform classification tasks directly from images, text or sound. Its usually implemented using a neural network architecture. Here deep refers to the "Number of layers in the network" i.e the more layers, the deeper the network. Traditional neural network contain only 2-3 layers, but in deep network contains hundreds of layers. Deep learning example is  A self-driving vehicle slows down as it approaches a pedestrian network . Deep learning is especially well-suited to identification applications such as face recognition, text translation, voice recognition and advanced driver assistance systems and traffic sign recognition etc. Deep learning is growing faster because it really works.  What is the Difference Between Deep Learning  and Machine Learning? Deep learning is a sub-type of machine learning. For example with machine  learning, you manually extract the relevant features of...

Introduction to IoT ecosystem

Basics of IoT IoT (Internet of Things) refers to a network where devices communicate to devices and devices communicate to software applications over the internet . This web-enabled devices/internet enabled devices will usually collect data, send and act upon data from their surrounding environment. •       The IoT network consists of Edge side (sensors, actuators and controllers connected to the internet) and Cloud side. •       The devices on the Edge side can either connect to the internet directly or using an Edge (IoT) gateway . The Edge gateway is used for: •        Providing a connection to the internet for devices that cannot connect to the internet on their own. These devices don’t have feature to connect to the Internet. •        Local functionality/control that must work even without internet availability •       ...
