Abstract
Augmented reality is a technology system that enhances one’s perceptions and experiences by overlaying digitized images onto real world environments. By looking through the display lenses of special eyewear, the seamless, information-rich, composite view that can be seen enhances understanding of the real world. As the technology that enables augmented reality evolves, auditory and haptic information overlays will be added, making the user’s experience far more vivid. Augmented reality has enormous potential for workplace e-learning and productivity improvement. Prototypes are currently in research and development for military, K-12, and university application. It is anticipated that advances in technology will make augmented reality a common learning tool within the next decade (Azuma, Baillot, Reinhold, Feiner, Julier, & MacIntyre, 2001).
