PDI7' TIRUPATI AUGMENTED REALITY
ABSTRACT
Video games have been entertaining us far ready 30 years, ever since Pong was introduced to
arcades in the early In 1970's. Computer graphics have become much more sophisticated since den
Ard soon. game graphes will seem all too real In the rem decade. researchers plan to pull graphics
out of your television screen or conrputer display and integrate them into real- world emironmenh
This new technology called augmented reality, will further blur the line between what is real and
what is computer-generated by enhuming what we see, hear, kel and smell. Augmented reality will
truly change the way we view tic world. Picture yourself walking or driving down the street. With
augmented-reality displays. which will eventually look much like a normal pairof glasses. infonmtiw
graphics will appear in you field of view, and auto will coincide with what very you see. Tlese

Eventually. possibly by the end of this decade we will see the first miss-marketed augmented-reality
system which can be described as "the Walkman of the 21st Century". Augmertod reality (AR)

They say reality is a hard pill to swallow. So how about reality served with a sugar coating of
information? Augmented Reality can help in multiple ways - provide critical information about your
surroundings, give you your persoml babel fish. help soldiers survive wars better, help law
enforcement officials catch criminals. avoid car accidents train surgeons. and lynch more. But AR r.
not just about this. it can be fun too! Yep it has limitless possibilities in pining Should you h.,
interested in not just experiencing AR but also creating that same magic. the hest chapter will help you
take your fro stem into AR programming. We tell you about the domain knowkdp requied for
starting off with each type of AR impkmentation and we end with an introduction to some of the most
useful frameworks / tookis avalkle to begin yotr jourrey.
