Benefits of AR and VR in the entertainment sector

VR forms a predominant part of the media entertainment industry that is focused on enhancing and producing video-based immersive media like movies, TV shows and other forms of video content. Beyond this, VR is also being implemented in museums and art galleries to make the tour interactive with a contextual background and to provide a rich user experience. On the same lines, virtual rides are being developed for Theme parks which are usually difficult to simulate in reality.

While Virtual Reality is responsible for garnering a lot of traction due to its highly immersive characteristics, Augmented Reality on the other hand is proving to be a game changer and a lucrative immersive technology, that will benefit the Gaming and Entertainment sector in the long run. AR technology is being used on a daily basis in smartphones via camera filters on social media platforms like Snap Chat, Instagram, and Facebook. The filter uses computer vision technology which relies on an active shape model categorising feature and a human face recognizing feature, through the camera and filters are applied accordingly. Other AR entertainment mobile applications like PokemonGo have transformed the real world with a simulated overlay that attracts and engages audiences.
