In this dossier, we will discuss augmented reality in different areas. Today, for example, this principle is used in medicine to support surgeons during operations. Augmented reality is also present in the field of defence, in the theater of military operations. It could make our lives easier by allowing us to manipulate 3D images and even helping us to drive more carefully… These innovations in augmented reality could well turn our daily lives upside down.
