What is Augmented Reality?
Augmented Reality (AR) is a perfect blend of the digital world and the physical elements to create an artificial environment. Apps that are developed using AR technology for mobile or desktop to blend digital components into the real world. The full form of AR is Augment Reality.
KEY DIFFERENCES BETWEEN AR & VR:
- AR augments the real-world scene whereas VR creates completely immersive virtual environments.
- AR is 25% virtual and 75% real while VR is 75% virtual and 25% real.
- In AR no headset is needed on the other hand in VR, you need a headset or a supporting device.
- With AR, end-users are still in touch with the real world while interacting with virtual objects nearer to them, but by using VR technology, VR user is isolated from the real world and immerses themselves in a completely fictional world.

The primary benefit benefit of Augmented reality is that it can be used by any individual including mentally and physically challenged people.
It blurs the line between the virtual and the real world. It also processes interactive nature.
The outcome of a particular event can be determined by using the computing power of AR that saving tons of money.
It also provides much enhance the sense of Reality That a human can experience.
This is used by the military is across the globe to simulate the battlefield beforehand thus providing a tactical advantage
With proper guidance, It provides a great user experience. The primary notion of AR is to increase social interaction and it can be used for the marketing of any products and shops
And it is very fun for the user and it will most likely be the future.

It has some limitations too, their devices cannot be leveraged without appropriate Training
It is very expensive to develop and maintain.
It also suffers from a lack of privacy transporting user data at risk.
It Rises certain conditions where some users may experience devastating health and psychological issues.
There exist very few devices that are enabled.
With the current hardware capabilities, AR has a very poor general performance
With AR, participation with real-world individuals may be affected.
It is vulnerable to cyber-attacks and threats.
If it falls into the wrong hands, the outcome can be devastating if used in a way as intended.
With current standards, we can say that this is just the beginning or its in the beta state of what there can achieve
