Augmented Reality (AR) allows for interaction with the physical world. Any element in the real world can be augmented by sound, video, image, or 3d object based on GPS data and image or marker recognition. These augmented elements are typically overlaid on a live camera feed via webcam or mobile device and now wearables such as “smart goggles/glasses”. There are many Software Development Kits (SDKs) available that provide tools and libraries to easily develop AR applications on multiple platforms, such as iOS, Android, Windows Mobile, BlackBerry, or Desktop (OSX, Windows, Linux). With that said, each SDK has its own features and limitations for its intended platforms.
Below is a list of features provided by the leading AR SDKs.
