Future of Augmented and Virtual Reality in Our Social and Work Life

Kunal Baranwal, Hitesh Bhargav

Abstract


The future technology is expected to change not only industrial services, but also our social and work life. At the moment, virtual reality and augmented reality are the two biggest technological trends. In the past few years, there is a growing number of low cost augmented and virtual reality devices being available to the general public. With this, there is a huge potential of such devices being an important part of our lives. This research work contributes to explore how augmented reality and virtual reality will have an effect on our social and work life. The most common way to experience VR has been through smartphones and headsets since a few years ago. This has been the simplest option for people to begin utilizing VR. Compared to the market for augmented reality today, virtual reality is far more developed. To create an immersive VR experience, the necessary hardware platforms and software tools are now available. Increasingly sophisticated technology, like the Oculus Rift and 360-degree cameras, are making virtual reality experiences more widely applicable in our daily lives.
