Augmented Reality - Situated Spatial Synergy (Hardcover)

Hardcover. Augmented Reality (AR) enriches user experiences by seamlessly integrating virtual elements into real-world environments. Such interfaces enhance and modify the apprehension of natural surroundings, mediating engagement with ambient features. As an important aspect of human-computer interaction (HCI), AR exploits alignment of virtual content, such as graphics, sound, and tactile feedback, with the physical world. AR offers an immersive, first-person experience that is both sensorily coherent and intimately woven into reality. Generally networked and featuring real-time interaction, AR is further empowered by artificial intelligence (AI), which drives content creation, natural language processing, and personalization. Although virtual reality (VR) is currently better known within the extended reality (XR) family, AR is rapidly emerging as a socially transformative and disruptive paradigm, presenting unique challenges and opportunities. This volume, edited by Michael Cohen, a distinguished practitioner and researcher, serves as an invaluable resource for professionals in the field, highlighting cutting-edge advancements and predicting future trajectories of augmented reality.
