Enhanced Reality: The Virtual Reality continues crossing barriers

The enhanced Reality consists on a group of devices that you/they already add virtual information to the physical information existing. This is the main difference with the virtual reality, since you don't substitute the physical reality, but rather you overstrike the computer data to the actual world.

At this time the technique of the enhanced reality uses a similar helmet-viewer to that of the virtual reality but that incorporate synthetic (as graphics 3D) information without locking the user's view, or locking certain (for example to hide a ruin and to show in your place a reconstrución of the original construction) elements. This generates a consistent world among what we see and what we play in fundamental issues as our supportive plan, but that you allow to incorporate any imaginable element.

The games of Enhanced" "Reality fuse (AR) the physical world with the fantasy in a more and more actual way.

The Enhanced" "Reality is (AR) the field of the technology that he/she study the way to merge the actual world with virtual images. That is to say, mounting virtual images in an existing space.

How do you work? You put on shoes a backpack, headphones and some special glasses and you can scan streets or rooms pursuing or speaking with dummy beings, at the same time that you scan an unreal world.In the University of the South of Australia, for example, they have created a version AR of the popular one I play "Quake." The users use a helmet with viewer and a backpack, and the (very actual) streets of the city scan, fighting against created on-line objects that they can only see.

In Georgia Tech is using the technology to create interactive dramas, something that allow the players to have an influential network role, so that the test is something similar to a theater scenario. You would be a place where the player transforms into plaintiff and you decide, by means of your intervention, the development of the history. After Façade the investigators are creating a game call "Four Angry" Men, based on a work (Four Angry Men), where the players will debate the destination of an accused young man of murdering your father.You are hundred of possibilities in the line of the histories, and possible several ends that depend on the player's intervention. Although you seem complicated, the certain thing is that the whole process could be mounted in a console of games. The advance of the technology would even allow that some day, these virtual games can be run with something as bare as a motive. According to Steven Dow of Georgia Tech, the current generation of motives has defendant's power and the necessary resolution quality to provide fascinating tests of Enhanced Reality.

Following this line, in New Zealand, "AR is developing Tennis", a game that allow the players to use your motives as rackets in a virtual court recreated in an actual table. Billy Pidgeon, an analyst of games of the company IDC, says that the field is promising, especially for the increment of the data, transportable power and other pocket devices.
