Educational Advancements in the Field of Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality

Technology has constantly kept on evolving since many years. This has helped in the growth of many fields throughout the world. One such important field is Education. Different technologies have helped education to grow positively and help everyone learn and practice with ease and understanding. Technology has proven to be a useful aid in education, as it enables teaching methods to be eased and efficiency enhanced by incorporating economical and effective means of transmitting digital content. Researchers have shown us that Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality have great potential to support two types of users: students, on the one hand, increase productivity and from the other teachers, broaden their teaching techniques. Hence, it makes the experience of education and learning more effective and stimulating. Nonetheless, even for non-skilled developers, there is no specifically designed platform for the flexible creation of AR/VR content. There is therefore a need to develop new tools to allow users to easily become producers of such experiences.
