This document discusses virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) tools from Google. It provides a brief history of VR starting from the 1950s. Applications of VR discussed include business, engineering, training, entertainment and medical. Google VR tools introduced are Cardboard and Daydream. The document defines AR as combining real and virtual scenes. AR applications mentioned include visualizing 3D models. Google AR tools introduced are Tango apps that can place virtual objects in the real world. The document concludes with contact details for the presenter.

5. Virtual Reality
Virtual reality is an artificial environment that is
created with software and presented to the user in
such a way that the user suspends belief and
accepts it as a real environment.
On a computer, virtual reality is primarily experienced
through two of the five senses: sight and sound.

18. Google I/0 2017 news
Following its Daydream View phone-based headset
from last year, which has garnered new phone
partners
Google announced an unnamed Daydream-
compatible headset that doesn't require a phone — a
standalone wireless VR headset with built-in
positional tracking. We'll see devices later this year.

20. What is Augmented Reality?
A combination of a real scene viewed by a user and
a virtual scene generated by a computer that
augments the scene with additional information.
An AR system adds virtual computer-generated
objects, audio and other sense enhancements to a
real-world enviornment in real time.
