Augmented Reality in Class Room






Application of Augmented Reality in Educational Sector have seen a steep rise in the recent few days. By inculcating Augmented Reality in teaching-learning process, the basic understanding and perception of the student changes. Consider a Directness of Kinder Garden wants to teach "Elephant" to the kids. Rather than she showing the picture of the elephant and describing it, it would be appreciable if the child visualizes the 3-dimensional view and movement of an elephant. This can readily be brought by Augmented Reality. Students just need to simply possess a smart phone for AR-based education (Now-a-days kids are much well versed in the functionalities of mobile phones than adults!) Nowadays a number of book publishing companies are collaborating with Augmented Reality features. It is also possible to make markers to introduce Augmented Reality in classroom. The marker images serve as a trigger to display a 3-dimensional content over the surface.  Some of the popular Augmented Reality apps which are available to ease the teachers use Augmented Reality to effectively demonstrate the lesson contents are Aurasma and Layar. Aurasma and Layar, both work well on IOS as well as Android devices. Augmented Reality enabled home worksheets will make children more engaging to finish their home works as they are captured by 3-dimensional visualization. There are huge number of resources developed by Indian Society for Technical Education on developing Augmented Reality customized worksheets.

Very soon AugmentedReality is going to be students' horizon in the field of education!

Augmented Reality in Agriculture



Agriculture is an area where research is always with a delay. Most powerful possibility of application of Augmented Reality is to agriculture. Augmented Reality synergizes real and virtual world. The virtual world is generally created by using 3D superimposed graphical pictures taken using camera. With the advent of Articulated Naturality Web(ANW), it is possible to witness the objects captured by camera. as well as virtual images. It is also possible to integrate any necessary information of the object captured by the camera, even if the objects are distant with Articulated Naturality Web. Augmented Reality can readily be applied to agricultural sector to improve food and farming technology. Articulated Naturality Web can readily be adapted by agricultural researchers as placing the Augmented Reality equipments in agricultural research centres turns out to be a cost-effective solution. Augmented Reality can also be applied to optimally place modern tractors and mobile machinery. Augmented Reality along with the capability of GPS, can be employed to track the movement of tractors and other agriculture machinery. It is also possible to append large screen displays, on which the picture of the farm may be imposed providing ways for passage or planning the boundary. Animal Husbandry is another promising application area of Augmented Reality for effective management of farms, cowshed or piggery. Using Augmented Reality, it is possible to easily identify plants using camera and necessary supporting software. By this facility it is possible to predict pests and plan for appropriate pesticide procedures, thereby increasing crop production.
Augmented Reality will soon become an essential feature of Precision farming!

Articulated Naturality Web

The "next big thing" in the mobile world is predicted to be Articulated Naturality Web (ANW). Articulated Naturality Web works with Augmented Reality (AR) as its base, woven with a perfect mix of Artificial Intelligence (AI). The word 'Articulate' means to interact in natural language with visualization. It provides a natural alternative to provide effective interaction mechanism. Articulate is a system that synergies Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Machine Learning (ML) in the domain of data visualization and data analytics. Here occurs the transformation of natural language queries into meaningful representation of data
Articulate represents data analytics and problem solving over direct manipulation of visualization. Articulate refers to Natural Language Processing neatly woven with Machine Learning Algorithms to translate the speech which is in native language. The users' input sentence is parsed into syntactic tree, from which a feature can be efficiently extracted to represent the query. Biased on the extracted set of features, a Supervised Learning Algorithm identifies the integrated visual-analytical task which is employed to produce a Graph-Generation Algorithm in determining and presenting accurate visualization to the user. This greatly reduces the overhead involved in developing a complex user interface.

'Articulate' is a leap towards time, where the computer understands the users' intention as naturally as human brain do!
