The staff development committee of IT Department conducted a workshop on the title ‘Augmented Reality’ on 4th September 2019 in IT302 at 9:30 AM. The Resource person was Mr. Mohammed Tauqer Ullah.
The presenter gave an idea about Augmented Reality, Virtual reality, Mixed reality, Unity Engine, Vuforia Database and sample AR applications.
Augmented reality starts with a camera-equipped device—such as a smartphone, a tablet, or smart glasses—loaded with AR software. When a user points the device and looks at an object, the software recognizes it through computer vision technology, which analyzes the video stream.
Pioneering organizations, including GE, Mayo Clinic, and the U.S. Navy, are using AR to improve productivity, quality, and training. By combining the strengths of humans and machines, AR will dramatically increase value creation.
The presentation covered following topics:
- What is Virtual Reality
- What is Augmented Reality
- Architecture of Augmented Reality
- Types of Augmented Reality
- Applications of Augmented Reality
- Implementation of AR in Unity 3D with Vuforia Tool
- AR Apps
- Mixed Reality (Future of AR)
