2. Importance of AR in education
Augmented reality in education allows students to be immersed in
realistic experiences which make the learning process more active,
effective, and meaningful. AR in education and training enables
users to interact with virtual and real-time applications that explain
and demonstrate concepts through multimedia, computer-based
simulations, animations, and statistical software.
3. Three Types of AR Used in
Education Today
Marker-based AR - 59.38%
Marker-less AR - 12.50%
Location-based AR - 21.88%
4. Augmented Reality EdTech Trends
AI and AR Will Work Together
Mobile Augmented Reality
WebAR Solutions
Cross-Platform AR Applications
Interactive AR Manuals
5. AI and AR Will Work Together
AI algorithms enable AR applications and devices to infer the sensor data generated in
the real-life environment. Techniques like 3D scanning allows educators to import real-
world objects into metaverse environments.
Mobile Augmented Reality
Mobile devices are the main vehicles that drive augmented reality experiences. Since
mobile devices are more convenient and handy than AR headsets, businesses have
immense opportunities to leverage mobile devices for AR.
6. WebAR Solutions
WebAR solutions, powered by web browsers, don’t require users to download additional
software. This feature makes WebAR more accessible. Educators can use WebAR to
create simple 3D objects that convey complex concepts to students in a highly intuitive
manner.
Cross-Platform AR Applications
Cross-Platform AR development is an ideal choice if your requirement is to create a
simple application without complex functions. Cross-platform development ensures
faster time to market as it is easier to code such apps.
7. Interactive AR Manuals
Businesses looking to provide their customers with feature-rich instructions and
detailed documentation can leverage interactive AR manuals. This saves the customer
from spending too much time understanding a product and its features. AR helps share
information in a more engaging way, enabling the customer to make informed decisions.
30.5%
According to ARtillery Intelligence, the global mobile AR
revenue is projected to grow from $6.87 billion in 2020 to
$26.05 billion in 2025, at a CAGR of 30.5%.
