Introduction
Augmented reality is the process of adding something to your view of the real world, often using a headset or other technology. Augmented reality headsets are designed to give you information about what’s around you without distracting from what you’re doing. For example, if you’re driving with an AR headset and get lost on an unfamiliar road, it will tell you where to turn without taking your eyes off the road or having to look at a map on your phone screen.
A head mounted display is a device that will display things in your field of view.
What is a head-mounted display?
A head-mounted display (HMD) is a device that will display things in your field of view. It can be used to augment reality, which is why they are often referred to as AR headsets.
HMDs are used to augment reality, which is why they are often referred to as AR headsets.
The Google Glass augmented reality display works by using a head-mounted display (HMD) to augment reality. HMDs are used to augment reality, which is why they are often referred to as AR headsets.
AR displays provide users with additional information about their surroundings that may not be visible with the naked eye or other senses alone. They can also be used for tasks such as navigation, gaming and shopping.
There are two main types of HMDs, monocular and binocular. Monocular means it can only show one image at a time. Binocular allows you to see two different images at once, like in the case of Google Glass.
Monocular displays show only one image at a time. Binocular displays, however, allow you to see two different images at once–like in the case of Google Glass. This is important because it allows for augmented reality glasses like Google Glass to display maps and directions directly in front of your eyes!
The main purpose behind AR is to give us information that we need without taking our eyes off the road or whatever we’re doing. For example, if you’re driving on an unfamiliar route, the GPS on your phone can tell you where to go without having to look down at your GPS app on your phone.
AR is an amazing technology that can help us get through life with ease. Here are some examples of how AR works:
- If you’re driving on an unfamiliar route, the GPS on your phone can tell you where to go without having to look down at your GPS app on your phone. This keeps both hands free and allows you to focus on other things like driving safely or talking with passengers in the car.
- When shopping online for products such as electronics or clothing items, AR will show them in 3D so that customers can see how they look before buying them (a feature known as “shopping by image”). This makes it much easier for consumers because they don’t have read descriptions about the products; instead they just need look at what’s being sold from different angles using their smartphone camera lens!
Conclusion
Google Glass is still in its infancy, but it’s already showing us the potential of AR technology. The device is limited by its small size and battery life, but we can expect these problems to be solved as Google continues development on new versions of Glass. In the meantime, there are plenty other options available if you want an HMD of your own!
