The rise of spatial computing in recent years has led to a boom in AR, VR, and MR technologies, but has left many disappointed due to its slow adoption rate. New paradigms of computing are rarely enough to drive adoption, but considering the technology is already available in the phones in our pockets, many companies are looking to integrate AR experiences into their offerings. Whether to support e-commerce operations, or to create unique branding and marketing experiences, it’s undeniable that mobile AR is gaining traction. The tools and frameworks for building robust AR content are only getting easier with Apple and Google integrating key spatial features into their SDKs. We can expect mobile AR to keep evolving over the next few years.

For now, only tiny patches of the mirrorworld are visible through AR headsets. Piece by piece, these virtual fragments are being stitched together to form a shared, persistent place that will parallel the real world.

Designing for Augmented Reality on Mobile
by Bushra Mahmood via medium.com
Augmented reality is a digital extension of product design. The same principles of thinking apply with a few modifications. Rather than having physical constraints, the user now has technological constraints and affordances.
