Augmented reality (AR) devices are designed to make an environment which differs from the real-life environment and gives a digital interface by setting up virtual objects in real time. Augmented reality devices have a significant difference from virtual reality devices as it uses the existing environment and overlay information on top of it. Augmented reality devices are accessible commonly through smartphone which leads to the development of various augmented reality apps. These apps are the application which combines the digital visual, audio content and other types into the user’s real-life environment. Augmented reality devices use software which is used in various industries such as public safety, healthcare, tourism, gas and oil, and marketing. Some of the popular AR apps are Google Sky Map, PokemonGo, and Lookator etc. Additionally, users can use these devices to create a 3D environment with 3D models with the help of a tablet or a smartphone.
