Augmented Virtual Reality Glasses

What is augmented reality?
Augmented reality not any kind of virtual reality, in fact it is more than reality.Manily, it is a process or mechanism, which basically collect information from our surrounding environment in real-time and superimpose those data with real-world pictures or background information. Yet, not clear about this concept! Ok. Let me give some practical examples to clarify this matter. One of the most important practical applications of augmented-reality technology is contact Lenses
Why augmented reality?
The speed at which our eyes can communicate with our brain is far faster than the fastest Internet of the world. Normally, what we see with your eyes can not be interpreted entirely by our brain- only a percent of captured information understandable or usable for the creation of reality inside our brain, the rest of the unusable information is simply filtered out as disposal. So, we can say that our eyes actually see more than we know about real-world! For some mysterious reason our brain is not processing all the information-maybe to make us see only the way we see the world-perhaps this is the most beautiful view decided by evolution process. Whatsoever, fortunately we are not our eyes-which is just a biological device or biological camera. If our brain could interpret all the observed data captured by eyes, then perhaps we would see a more colorful view of our world.
Nature has built our eyes giving all the power to process and distinguish millions of colors or lights (which is just a spectrum of color or frequency). To help our brain to interpret more colours, we can use augmented reality technology, which is a brand new science with the potential of opening up a whole new world in front of us-which nature was hiding from us for some reason.
University of Washington,USA, undertaking a project of augmented reality, where researchers are trying to build a prototype of augmented-reality project. In this project, scientists are developing an infitesimally small LED, which will generate energy for a specially designed contact lens. Hundreds of such type of LED (light emitting diode) will be integrated inside contact lenses. In return, this lenses will enhance our ability to interpret more colors of the world than our brain usually do-thus will help us to new a new version of the world. Who knows after wearing these lenses, the vision of this world will lead us to some other dimension of evolution.
Wearable Retinal Display-Augmented Reality Glasses
This is another form of augmented reality. It will work as a universal language translator. In this technology, a small device will be integrated in a pair of optical lenses wearable just like glassess,which will be a display screen for showing the translated language and a piece of microphone will be attached with the frame as a receiver intended to capture any foreign language spoken with you. Any word you hear in any language will be transmitted in real-time to a central server for translation and the output of the translation will be shown in front of your glasses-that is what the purpose of wearable retinal display. Eventually, this will help us break the language barrier-a great enterprise towards cultural globalization.
Heads-Up Display
This is one of the most popular augmented-reality with current time practical usage and market demand. You must have seen this type of prototype in many movies, especially in science-fictions. What heads-up display does is –it can show you any real-time computer generated data or statistics in a wind-shield of a car or aircraft. This is been widely used in military information processing and data analysis presentation purpose.

Nice picture with great reality.
