As a technology, AR has been around for over 30 years. According to Scientific American, the term Augmented Reality was first coined in 1990 by a scientist at Boeing where they developed a prototype solution to help workers construct wiring harnesses. Applications are being developed in the medical, military, manufacturing, and entertainment industries that will improve productivity and processes via high-tech innovation. As production costs fall and technology improves, the adoption of AR will have a profound effect on our society; the way we interact with computers, one another, and the way we learn and work.
