THE ROLE PLAY OF AUGMENTED REALITY (AR) IN MOBILE GAMING


INTRODUCTION • Video

games, a form of media that started only several decades ago, have exploded exponentially in a short time with their methods of interaction. What began as large cabinets with players interacting through a screen have now reached a point where one can enter and experience the game in virtual reality? Augmented reality, the integration of real-time environments with virtual, though a recent technology has taken the world by storm with endless possibilities, limited only by mobile game development technology. By tying the real world with a virtual environment, players are introduced to a new form of immersive gameplay.

it have been promising. Unlike virtual reality, which needs to render a whole new world, augmented reality adds to the real physical world. It has many more uses than just for gaming, although gaming is one of the markets leading the development of it. In the early stages of development, a designer can see in real-time how a 3D object interacts with the world, without the use of creating physical models or complicated math.


CONTINUED‌ • Though often compared to each other, either due to similar names or similar

release times, there is a very distinct difference between augmented and virtual reality. Virtual reality often uses headsets that emulate a world while augmented ads to the world through the use of transparent lenses. When it comes to Mobile Game Software Development, augmented reality offers more opportunities primarily through the use of a phone's camera as a lens. Within the last couple of years, many award-winning mobile games have come out exploring the use of augmented reality.

entertainment is now equal to movies, television, and music in mainstream acceptance? It's this form of entertainment too, that's leading the push for new technologies as it benefits greatly from them such as AI, virtual and augmented reality, 5G.
