What is the biggest difference between smart glasses AR glasses and VR glasses?

AR refers to the presence of real-world images in the field of view, but the addition of virtual objects on top of the images. The superimposed objects need to interact with the real scene, such as being able to fit into walls or be placed on tables, thus enhancing reality. Therefore, it is called augmented reality. AR glasses are a combination of virtual and reality, allowing you to see both the real world and virtual scenes.

At present, there are several opinions on the development areas of future AR

wearable devices

With the help of terminals such as watches, glasses, and even wristbands, AR experiences can be started anytime and anywhere, improving understanding of the real world. Ultimately, just like the scenes described in movies, tapping on the glasses frame will present the quantified world to people, helping them understand and manipulate the physical environment, and providing intelligent support for industrial operations.

Internet of Things

AR+Internet of Things is an ideal combination. With the help of big data, every object can become a screen, and each object can be presented in the form of enhanced information. Everything in front of the user can be a screen, and true freedom will be achieved at that time.

VR, virtual reality, refers to the entire environment in the field of vision being virtual and having no relation to the real scene. You can wear VR glasses in your living room and instantly come to an outer planet to play space combat games with friends. The movie “Number One Player” depicts such a world.

Immersion: The feeling of being in a virtual scene, blocking the light of the real scene and allowing the virtual scene to occupy the entire field of view, making it feel realistic and three-dimensional.

Interactivity: It can interact in real-time with content in virtual scenes, have a real response to user behavior, and rely on sensors, software calculations, execution systems, etc. to provide sensory feedback.

Imagery: A scene based on reality but higher than reality, which to some extent violates the laws of physics and is a delicate and surreal scene.

VR glasses are all headsets. Wearing VR headsets allows us to enter an illusory world visually and gain an immersive experience spiritually.

If VR is taking people to a mysterious and illusory world, then AR is helping people better understand the real world and gain immersive experiences from it. The naked eye can no longer satisfy people’s perception of the world, and AR, as its name suggests, makes reality more realistic.
