Augmented Reality Vs Virtual Reality

What Is Virtual Reality?

  • Virtual Reality or known as VR helps in creating a stimulus of the environment with the help of computer programming.
  • In Layman’s terms, it is a technological illusion created to give a real-time effect for an individual.
  • It does not involve a screen for viewing but has special VR devices giving you a three-dimensional experience.
  • With the combined simulation of various human senses, the computer transforms the algorithms into a code so we can enjoy a first-person mode similar to computer gaming.
  • Visual creations and display technology make VR stand out from the traditional user interface of operating on TV or computer screens.
  • With the introduction to new technology and various software, the VR devices are also upgrading accordingly and various companies have entered the competition in producing high-end VR devices like Oculus Quest, PlayStation, and even Google.
  • The best advantage of VR technology is that you can use it anywhere, let it be your home or office, just taking a break from your busy schedule and mounting a VR-helmet on top of your head brings out the inner you in a fraction of seconds.
  • Virtual reality is kind of an artificial one.

Features of Virtual Reality

  • The device is basically a head-mounted display (HMD).
  • It is highly compatible and light-weight giving the advantage of a fun experience, especially for game consoles.
  • Has the advantage of place and time transitions.

Advantages

  • Makes education process simple
  • Creating a realistic world
  • 3D experience
  • High-quality graphics

Disadvantages

  • Expensive
  • Limited mobility due to illusions created
  • Technology is very complicated

What Is Augmented Reality?

  • The projection of real-world experience with the help of technology onto different devices or screens was once beyond imagination for mankind.
  • However, with speedy growth in scientific inventions, it has become a part of life.
  • Augmented Reality or AR is similar to Virtual Reality but not the same.
  • It is an enhanced version of reality for adding digital information to a pre-existing technology.

Features Augmented Reality 

  • It is used for many smartphone applications and mostly it is focused on the usage of its camera.
  • The camera is an essential component for its projection. Games are played on a greater scale using AR technology.

Advantages

  • When used properly can provide the best real-world effects and scenes.
  • Strong functionality
  • Best use for smartphones
  • Can be upgraded with new versions of handsets

 Disadvantages

  • Some headsets are very expensive
  • Limited display radius
  • Not usable for all devices
  • Internet connection is a must

Major Differences Between VR vs AR

Virtual Reality

  • It has the ability to let its user travel to different locations with the help of a VR device.
  • Thus, the user can translocate himself from place to place with the help of its technology.
  • VR headsets are the most popular forms of it. These days we have an application called 360 degrees view which enables us to view a certain element from all angles. This is also an example of Virtual Reality.

Augmented Reality

  • The Augmented technique helps you to create a digital scenario rather than giving you the feature of teleporting to various places virtually.
  • It is rather a good choice as it helps you locate places of your choice with the help of the AR application.
  • As mentioned earlier, maps prove to be the best version of Augmented Reality.
  • The number of services offered on the internet such as different apps and games merging real-life locations and scenarios with GPS technology is a form of this reality.
