What’s the Difference between Virtual Reality, Mixed Reality and Augmented Reality?

    • Question Description

      Hello there I need 2 full pages about AR. Please look at the instructor really carefully and let me know if you have any question, thanks.

      For This assignment, you are to write a 2 page report on Augmented Reality. Explain What AR is and list a few examples of how its being used. Also, you will need to find two examples of AR projects and provided a summary. Please stick to scholarly sources and be sure to cite in APA format. (Note** If you find a project that you really find interesting, but it blends over into mixed or virtual reality instead of pure AR, its still fine to use, just be sure to explain).

      Next we will focus on Augmented Reality. We will have to touch on virtual reality and mixed reality a bit as well as there is a lot of overlap in the technologies. Instead of posting a bunch of reading materials, I have posted few video links to check out. The AR article from last week ties in well with a few definitions and examples of Howit can be used in an educational context. If you didn’t get a chance to look at it last week or can’t stream the videos, be sure to take a look instead. Page 2 of the document shows a continuum of mixed reality between the virtual and the real.

      For this topic, check out some of the videos below, and then complete the homework assignment posted in the Homework tab that will require a little more research (Details listed in the HW link). The homework will be due Monday June 25th . Transcripts are available by clicking on the ellipsis icon above the subscribe button. It will give you an option to open the transcript.
