How VR and AR is changing the world?

Virtual reality and augmented reality are two concepts that have long been in the development phase. However, the last couple of years has seen the practical application of these concepts in everyday situations. The line between the real world and the virtual world can become so blurred that the new generation often confuses both these things. VR and AR are changing the game for sure – the question is, is this change for the better? Here are some examples of how these technologies are making brands, businesses, and the lives of consumers better:

1. In factories today, things have never been simpler. A factory worker who has relatively low technical knowledge and capability can fix the complex mechanical failures and malfunctions by following 3D augmented instructions with the help of wearable HMD (Head-mounted Display) & Smart glasses or just with a simple smart phone. All instructions appear just on the top of the broken part of the machine. A few years back, this was not possible and the poor worker would have been fired on the spot!
2. One biggest problem with traveling, especially on airplanes, is the amount of luggage you can carry. With AR functions embedded in your phone, the process of checking how much luggage you have with you has become simpler. You can just scan your luggage surface with your mobile phone that has the relevant AR functions and learn whether your luggage size is acceptable or not. All this is done before you arrive at the airport to avoid any hassle.
3. For medical students and professionals, AR really has allowed them to understand complex concepts easily. While dissecting a dead body is not the favorite thing of every medical student, they can do this on their mobile phones now as well. All thanks to the new VR and AR technologies.
