AR Development Environments

Augmented reality can be experienced via a head-worn high-end device like HoloLens 2 or a handheld Smartphone. It consists of computer-generated graphics (and holograms) that modify the user’s existing surroundings. The environment is modified to include additional interactable objects. This technology gives an illusion to the users that the projected holograms exist in reality and are interactable.
