Abstract
From the background information supplied by the inventors, news correspondents o btained the following quote: “Augmented-Reality (AR) is a modification of a virt ual environment. For example, in Virtual Reality (VR), a user is completely imme rsed in a virtual world, whereas in AR, the user is immersed in a world where vi rtual objects are combined or superimposed on the real world. An AR system aims to generate and present virtual objects that interact realistically with a real- world environment and with each other. Examples of AR applications can include s ingle or multiple player video games, instant messaging systems, and the like.”
