Abstract Augmented Reality

The document discusses augmented reality (AR) which adds computer generated information to the real world. AR is closer to the real world than virtual reality by adding graphics, sound, haptics and smells. AR is changing how we view the world through devices like smart glasses and phones. Key to AR is how realistically augmentations integrate with the real world through techniques like image registration.
