What is AR and how does it work?

Augmented reality, commonly noted as AR, adds digital content or features on live camera feeds, making it look like it is part of the physical world around you. This can be anything from making a person’s face appear as a cartoon to putting ‘virtual’ furniture in a space to check out how it looks before purchasing.

But, how does this work?

AR technology uses computer vision to understand what is in the world around the user from the content of the camera feed. In doing so, this allows it to show digital content relevant to what the user is looking at.

Although the human brain is good at understanding images, this still remains tricky for computers. As AR requires this understanding, computer vision is imperative as it understands the world around the user, in terms of both semantics and 3D geometry.  PEGASYSTEMS For the 12th consecutive year, Pegasystems was recognised as a Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for CRM Customer Engagement Centre.
