Sažetak
Augmented reality (AR) system combines the real world with virtual information and provides expanded and information-rich view of the environment to the user. The AR systems have been around for a few decades but their number started to grow significantly only during the last few years. Recent advances in technology, lower cost of otherwise expensive equipment and especially development of smart handheld device market have propelled the rapid development of the AR. It has literally become a part of everyday life. This paper presents a systematic overview of state-of- the-art AR technology. It covers AR system components, applications, outlook on future research and development as well as main technology challenges and limitations. The paper also includes several examples of Virtual reality (VR), the technology similar to the AR. Besides the AR for the handheld devices, the paper covers a number of other applications with special section on existing and potential AR and VR applications in maritime sector.
