Pros And Cons Of Augmented Reality

A modernized education is imperative because students learn better with the use of technology. In order to succeed in the field of education, students must have a sense of today’s fast paced society. With the use of advanced technology in the classroom, students will be able to apply acquired material to the real world. While the old ways of teaching

In the past, virtual reality technology was thought of by many as a gimmick, and the hope for it to become a mainstream technology was discarded as products did not work as how the public envisioned. However, the proper technology is now available to make virtual reality just that: a reality. The entertainment industry is on the verge of a monumental paradigm shift that will completely transform the way these entertainment mediums are experienced.

Have you ever heard about magical lamp that had made the life of deaf easy? Technologies such as Cochlear and roger pen are considered as the magical lamps which have made life of deaf people easy and normal as other people. Cochlear and roger pen are two technologies for deaf people which differ in price, way of use and

Deafness has been an obstacle thousands of people have had to overcome since the dawn of time. Even in the not so distant past, the future was typically very bleak for individuals who were born or became deaf. However, the future of an individual who is Deaf has become much brighter due to the development of American Sign Language. As the name describes, this language relies solely on visible movements and facial expressions with no auditory expression needed.

This paper will analyze virtual reality to explain what VR is and any drawbacks it may have, how and how much it is being used in education currently, how it is benefiting disabled learners, who are able to have access to it, and what a future with VR may look like.

For years and years, Deaf people were shunned and oppressed. If you were a deaf person who created art that can blow a persons mind, you weren’t treated as if; you were isolated, an alien from a distant planet. As Deaf culture began to grow, Sign Language, beliefs and most importantly Art became a powerful focal point on the identities of each person in the Deaf community. Visualization is a vital concept in the life of a Deaf person. American Sign Language depends on visuals. Hand shape, Location, Palm orientation, Movement and Non-manual markers are the five most important rules of ASL also known as the ASL Parameters. These Parameters are what make Sign Language a language; this is what gives each and every deaf person an identity. Deaf

Our goal is to make 3D worlds more realistic and immersive with the 3D MA platform. The 3D MA platform is designed to be compatible with VR equipment, such as the CAVE™ or head-mounted displays (HMD), turning virtual worlds into powerful real-life experiences. Our applications and domains described will be based with the augmentation which can take on a number of different forms. In all our applications the augmented reality presented to the user will enhances that person's performance in and perception of the virtual world. Our ultimate goal is to create a system such that the user cannot tell the difference between the real world and the virtual augmentation of it.

When it comes to augmented reality, we're looking at something that has found more success in the consumer space when compared to virtual reality. We've seen several applications with AR, along with video game and hardware devices such

What the deaf-blind use to communicate with each other or with other people depends on the extent of their vision and hearing loss, their educational backgrounds and what opportunities were open to them (“American Association,” 2009). Some of the methods used include tactile sign language, which is when the deaf-blind person places their hand on the signer’s hand to follow the shape and movement of the hands to understand what is being said. Face-to-face communication devices are used as well, those include a screen braille communicator, a teletypewriter that sits on a braille keyboard, a Captel that is a telephone that is connected to the computer that will caption what the caller is saying and display it on the screen (“American Association,” 2009). These inventions have helped the deaf-blind communicate so much easier, but a look at these inventions and they are large in size, they can’t be carried around as easily as a smart phone, and they sometimes can be expensive to own. On the other hand the success of videophone technology proves that it that there can be a simpler, more face-to-face, less expensive communication. Even though face-to-face communication is easily accessible to anyone who has a smartphone, those who are deaf-blind have vision loss that does not allow them to see such small

By definition, tangible representations pertain to objects and photographs or pictures that can be considered as highly iconic, or strongly resembling what they stand for, called the referent (Bruce et al., 2016, p. 425). Moreover, tangible representations can be employed expressively or receptively. Bruce et al. (2016) reviewed studies on literacy for the deaf-blind from 1990 to 2015. Findings showed the role of tangible representations and technologies in improving communicative expressiveness. Furthermore, different kinds of literacy lessons that are normally given to prelinguistic learners who are deafblind can improve self-expression. Some examples are: 1) using daily schedules to form anticipatory skills; 2) personalized story boxes to boost access and engagement with content; 3) experience books that enable the development of distancing (i.e. separation in time and space between the object of representation and the referent), and 4) chances for choice making to perform preference expression (Bruce & Conlon, 2005). For effective lessons, learners must be in a setting that promotes literacy growth. As McKenzie (2009) pointed out, an environment that is rich in plentiful literacy resources will benefit all kinds of learners, with or without disabilities. Books and other resources should be in classrooms in different forms if possible, including Braille, tactile adaptations, large print,

To begin with, AR can help students learn challenging concepts by involving the students in an interactive learning environment. In a case study done in Taiwan, students went around campus and pointed their mobile phone to their surroundings (citation). The device would calculate the students’ positions with a GPS system and produce a virtual scene with tags around objects. The students could then click on these objects and view the object’s detailed description in English. After this learning process, the students were asked to compose a descriptive essay. By analysing these writings, researchers found that the students

Sign language teaches deaf children to use the other senses such as sight to communicate with others. ASL centers on several techniques such as “hand shape, position, and movement, body movements, gestures, facial expressions, and other visual cues to form its words” instead of sounds and tones in the spoken language (“American Sign Language”).

VR is more than an upgraded version of Cinerama or a theme park ride, as it achieves not only a greater sense of presence, but through the use of computer technology, the capacity to direct one’s gaze and movements so that one can explore and move around inside the illusory flow of images [3]. The main imperfection in simulation at present comes from the difficulties inherent in presenting a sufficiently convincing computer generated image. Presenting a convincing visual input to a human being requires a computer which can handle a vast amount of information. This is both difficult and expensive with existing technology.

Introduction: As we know in 21 century technology is so advanced, using it we can develop advanced robot, drone and etc. Augmented realty and Internet of things are hottest topic of our era. Augmented reality is a live, direct or indirect, view of a physical, real-world environment whose elements are augmented by computer input such as video, graphics and etc. This technology change what 's real and what 's computer generated by enhancing what we see, hear and feel .We make an augmented reality based product Virtual Mirror. It will simulate makeup on a person’s face in both real time and 3D. The unique technology tracks a person’s facial features The past work done on it so far is quite good but we think to advance it or go to higher level. Virtual Mirror virtually demonstrates endless beauty products and fashion style in a cutting edge technology which give e-commerce and retail market to enhance their business. After each tester choice, user have to remove the product you just put on to try out the next, which is not only time consuming but can also be hard on your skin, so Virtual Makeup Mirror is the solution of this problem. It provide customer to choose very wide range of product thereby increasing customer satisfaction.

Seeing is believing, these words are the best combination to understand the meaning of Virtual Reality (VR). VR is one of the best asset and aspect of our future. No other technology has seen such a revolution like VR has. It is practically in use in almost every field such as entertainment, gaming, defense, robotics, medical, healthcare, military, education, fashion, heritage, business, engineering and many more fields. VR sometimes called Virtual Environment has drawn much attention in the last two decade. Extensive media coverage causes the much more rapid increase in the interest of the masses. Very few people, however, really know what VR is and what are its open problems are. In this report a historical overview of virtual reality is presented, basic terminology as an introduction are listed, followed by applications of this technology in science, work, and entertainment areas. Its present developments are thoroughly discussed in this report. Finally, the future of VR is considered in two aspects: technological and social. New research directions, technological frontiers and potential applications are pointed out. The possible positive and negative influence of VR on life of average people is speculated.
