Q1) What is augmented reality? Describe how augmented reality technologies could be used in e-commerce.
Answer: Augmented reality refers to content (text, video, and sound)that is superimposed over live images in order to enrich the user's experience. For example, Google Glass is an augmented reality implemented via wrap-around glasses that stream information to an area in the glass lenses above the eye. Businesses could use augmented reality for advertising location-based products and services in much the same way that mobile e-commerce currently does. For example, if you are walking down a street, your augmented reality glasses can let you know what deals are being offered at coffee shops or if a book you are looking for is discounted in the store you are passing. A content-provider service that you subscribe to might tell you the history of the church you are looking at.
