The topic

Augmented reality (AR) is future technology for the now. This rapidly emerging medium enables new ways of thinking, seeing,

interacting, engaging and communicating with your audience at a multi-sensory level.

What’s AR

Augmented reality (AR) is a live direct or indirect view of a physical, real-world environment whose elements

are augmented by computer-generated sensory input such as sound, video, graphics or GPS data. With the help of

advanced AR technology (e.g. adding computer vision and object recognition) the information about the

surrounding real world of the user becomes interactive and digitally manipulable. Artificial information about the

environment and its objects can be overlaid on the real world

AR in tourism sector

How augmented reality works

Augmented Reality (AR) is a technology enriching the real world with digital

information and media, such as 3D models and videos, overlaying in real-time the

camera view of your smartphone, tablet, PC or connected glasses

Augmented Reality: How we can Use It?

What we need?• Camera • Mobile device or• Tablet• Data base /server for the virtual objects• Glasses • GPS and Connection

In which kind of environments we can use the AR?

At the beginning it was used for the following sectors• Advertisement• Tourism• Marketing and social media

Now is applied also to reserach sectors • Health and Safety • Emergency• Resilience• Any drill environment• Cultural heritage in a civil war

How AR can be use in resilience environment?

• As a didactic tool in a drill environment• As a management tool for the team in

emergency situation • As a tool in emergency scenario

Drill simulation – scenario in outdoor

Localization of the emergency and guide for evacuation plan (3d, voice, and GPS)

IN case of indoor Environment

Localization of emergency team

Emergency team statusTherefore, the organization of drill level is into three phases: • introduction and explanation,• evacuation, • and final debriefing (recognize and release emotion built up during simulation, safe place to express feeling, mistake part of the learning process)

In emergency situation

How augmented reality technologies can be used to improve efficiency of rescue services in city?

Emergency team arrive at chaotic scenes and need to make sense of the environment and navigate a place they've never been. Wouldn't it be cool if they could see a virtual map of the site or have "X-ray vision" to see underground water and power lines?

Thanks to AR they can use location data of power lines, water and gas pipes in order to help rescue services in the city in a case of emergency.
