Augmented Reality is the technology that works to augment sensory based inputs, on real world objects, using camera of your device.<\/span><\/p>\n

Augmenting sensory inputs, literally means to make sensory inputs greater, by adding to it. AR helps us to inflate, elevate and multiply sensory inputs, by adding extra layers of digital information on real world objects.<\/span><\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The purpose of E learning is to engage it’s learners, for increasing learning effectiveness. This is where AR can transform and elevate the level of engagement and significantly improve the learning effectiveness.<\/span><\/p>\n

Why do we need augmented reality in e learning content?<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Augmented Reality enables us to add additional layers, by simply stapling digital content on already published content. The embedded information can be retrieved by learner on any other smart device, prompting them to engage with your content. AR enables us to elevate the engagement level of our e learning content, helping in sharing of additional information.<\/span><\/p>\n

How does AR work?<\/span><\/i>
\nAR technology helps us to add layers of digital information to a single object. The embedded information can be retrieved on any smart device, mobile phones, tablets, desktop, by using the camera, scanning the layered object where information has been embedded. Once User’s device scans this layered object, whatever information embedded in it, is fetched on their device, routing them to view the designated information.<\/span><\/p>\n

How to leverage AR in E learning?<\/span><\/i>
\nLet us now look at some possible use cases of Augmented Reality in E learning,<\/span><\/p>\n
