To me the benefit of AR is not just overlaying virtual objects on the physical world but specifically highlighting real objects in your field of view. Granted, this does just come down to placing a virtual object on the physical world. I can give a specific example that is perhaps of not so great financial advantage, but I think this kind of thing will be useful - using AR to give you directions to build IKEA furniture. You are sitting in front of a pile of materials and the AR will tell you to put _this_ bolt (highlighted) in _this_ hole in _this_ piece of wood. You would not have directions on a piece of paper but rather using the actual objects.
- tinco 9y agoI feel the key AR advantage will be that we don't have to spend half our time glancing down on tiny rectangles anymore. The Oculus is already less than an order of magnitude away from competing with regular LCD panels. Google glass and maybe that magic leap thing give us hints that it will eventually happen for mobile. No more displays, now that's something I would pay for.
