Augmented reality is an immersive experience in which we can see, hear, and feel digital content that is overlaid on to our physical world. AR is pushing the boundaries of reality and making it more intuitive, immersive, and interactive for all of us.

AR is being used in marketing, gaming, manufacturing, services, retail, education, healthcare, and so on. AR can been used to enhance the way consumers experience products. It can also be used to improve the productivity of work being done.
