HOW AR AND IOT TOGETHER ENABLE THE SMART AND INTERACTIVE ENVIRONMENT?

Recently, augmented reality (AR) and the Internet of Things (IoT) have received significant attention as key enabling technologies for making spaces smarter and more interactive. Where AR is a type of interactive medium that provides a view of the real world in augmented space by spatially registering useful computer-generated information and helps people to understand the world and amplifies their intelligence for solving problems and carrying out actual tasks, IoT refers to a network of physical devices and everyday objects embedded with minimal computing elements for sensing, collecting, communicating, and even interacting with the objects themselves. The connected infrastructure provides the basis for smart environments through a collective big data analysis and context-based services.
