Augmented Reality (AR) is a technology that overlays digital information, such as images or sounds, onto the real world. This is typically achieved through devices like smartphones, tablets, or AR glasses. By using cameras and sensors, AR enhances the user's perception of their environment, allowing them to interact with both real and virtual elements simultaneously.
AR has various applications, including gaming, education, and retail. For example, in the game Pokémon GO, players can see and catch virtual creatures in real-world locations. In education, AR can provide interactive experiences, such as visualizing complex concepts in subjects like science or mathematics.
