VIRTUAL REALITY-AUGMENTED REALITY-MIXED REALITY


First>>>>
Let's learn about Mixed Reality!
Before going to  Mixed Reality,we must understand the difference between Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality.

Stepping into Virtual Reality......
Using a virtual reality headset over your eyes, it removes your presence in the current world and drives you into a new world where you are actually NOT present.i.e you are actually present in the real world but you feel as if  you were in another world.(virtual world)
For instance,you are currently in your room now.Using a VR headset you can really feel as if you were swimming with the sharks in a big ocean.You can't actually see the real world around you.It just expands your senses with experiences within by making you BLIND from the current world.

Stepping into Augmented Reality......
The meaning of AUGMENT is to ADD.This gives the entire meaning required.It takes the current world and adds something to it.Like Virtual Reality, it doesn't take us to any other new world.It just augments our current state of presence.
This is an example picture of Augmented Reality.
Do you believe that I really caught a crocodile in my hands!😮😮😮
This is  what Augmented Reality is!
(*This is possible through Augmented Reality patch cards available now at very low cost.)
In this picture I belong to the real world and the crocodile is augmented into my world.

 Now lets go into an exciting topic "Mixed Reality".........
Now,we got to know the difference between Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality.As Virtual reality is quite more immersive than augmented reality,we wish to experience immersiveness of virtual reality in real world.This is nothing but improving Augmented Reality with more senses of immersion.That experience is possible through Mixed Reality.
Mixed Reality doesn't takes place completely in a real world or a virtual world but it is a mix of reality and virtual reality encompassing Augmented reality using Immersive technology.Immersive technology is a technology which blurs the line between physical world and digital world.


The future is completely based on  Mixed Reality.Microsoft HoloLens is a new emerging technology based on Mixed Reality which is going to rule the globe in future............Let's discuss about this in the next topic🙂

Mixed Reality Applications - HOLOTOUR

Image
We discussed about HoloStudio in my previous post, now let us discuss about another amazing application the 'HoloTour'. HoloTour provides the user with an immersive touring experience.It is nothing but a virtual travel. This app gives access to explore the beauty of Rome and Peru. Melissa is a tour guide who will guide us through the historical facts of the places we see so that we can understand what we are seeing. HoloTour makes the user feel as if he was really there. This is possible because of the panoramic videos, spatial sound system(we discussed earlier about this) and the holographic scenery view. The HoloTour is also designed to detect the interest of the user and if you look at something for a very long time then Melissa will offer new details about that thing. The additional advantage of HoloLens is that, it is untethered. This advantage  makes the user move around the room freely which indeed makes him feel as if he was moving in Rome or Peru🌝. It is Awesome

Mixed Reality Applications - ROBORAID

Are you a Gamer? Do you Really love Gaming? Then don't wait, give a try to RoboRaid. It is really awesome dude!!! RoboRaid is a game designed to HoloLens which provides the user with a very thrilling experience. In this game your room itself is a battle field. This is possible through the spatial mapping feature of the HoloLens. The enemies will actually break through the walls and cupboards of your room and, you as a shooter must just gaze at your enemy and air tap to kill it. The HoloLens pre-scans the room(spatial mapping) for providing the player with a very high interactive experience and the user can hear the sound from all around the room(spatial sound). As HoloLens is a self contained device, the user can easily move around the room and enjoy playing. (You can get it for free) 👍👍👍👍 Ref:  https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/hololens/apps/roboraid
