Transforming Learning: How Augmented Reality is Revolutionizing Corporate Training and eLearning

If 10 years back someone has predicted that our future will be augmented reality (AR)… would you have believed him? But that prediction has become a reality. AR technology has real applications in real-world contexts—and eLearning is one of those contexts.

Let’s see how AR elevates the collaboration and efficiency of your learning and training programs.

AR is not only a technology, but it’s also an experience. You just have to take your surroundings; mix them with a computer-generated environment, and voila! You find yourself in an AR environment provided by an AR app.

As you start interacting with the AR environment, it reacts to your actions. In return, you get real-time information tied to your surroundings. And that information adds to your surroundings in numerous ways.

An example of a real-world context where you could use an AR app is bird watching. You could walk down in a sanctuary, set up your camera on a bird, and see on your smartphone’s screen detail information about it.

To give you an example of interactive learning with augmented reality, picture a textbook. A pair of smart glasses with?object recognition?capabilities would scan the book while you’re reading it. Then, the glasses would display definitions, stats, or videos on the side of the book to help you understand certain concepts.

Examples of AR in Corporate Training:

1.? Safety Training

2.??Employee Onboarding

3.??Medical Training
