Description

foundational overview of Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR), emphasizing their core principles, technological components, and real-world applications. Learners will be introduced to the conceptual distinctions between AR and VR, explore contemporary use cases across various industries, and examine the tools and frameworks commonly used for developing immersive experiences.

establishing precise definitions and differentiating between AR—where digital content is superimposed onto the physical world—and VR, which creates fully immersive digital environments. A historical perspective is provided to contextualize the evolution of both technologies, followed by a detailed examination of their underlying technical frameworks, including spatial tracking, 3D rendering, motion sensing, and hardware components such as head-mounted displays (HMDs), depth sensors, and controllers.

foundation in AR and VR, equipping them with the knowledge necessary to begin designing and developing basic immersive applications while appreciating the broader implications and future directions of these emerging technologies.
