Description

This article defines AR and AR Cloud, distinguishes them from related technologies (MR, VR), and presents 9 common and potential AR Cloud use cases (such as education, healthcare, and beauty). The article cites AR Cloud visionary Ori Inbar, explaining that the "AR Cloud is a digital 3D copy of the real world. The purpose of an AR cloud is to enable the continuous sharing of AR Experiences across multiple devices." The AR Cloud experience is therefore characterized as a collaborative and shared experience, that can persist across different environments and adopt diverse forms.
