"Pokemon Go" Off To A Hot Start
"Pokemon is a Japanese entertainment brand that became popular in the 1990s. Its newest product, "Pokemon Go," is a location-based augmented reality game. The game makes Pokemon characters pop up on players' smartphone screens by using their cameras and GPS".
Augmented Reality Less Restrictive Than Virtual Reality
the central idea of this passage overall is that people have played the virtual realty game Pokemon go more than any other thing in the world it has incredible numbers some say its not safe to play some say it is overall the game has became more popular than most social medias over the months and how pokemon has became the top priority for most most people "Virtual reality currently requires people to use headsets or other high-tech devices. Augmented reality, however, is simpler. People can blend the real and virtual worlds with just their smartphones. But AR games also let gamer interact with one another. "Pokemon Go" does this by allowing players to compete against each other for monsters and encouraging them to step outside and interact with others. That's only possible because the game is played on smartphones, a device that an estimated two-thirds of American adults already carry with them everywhere".
Interest In Augmented Reality Growing
The gaming industry itself has largely overlooked augmented reality. This is in part because, until now, people weren't as excited about it as they were about virtual reality. There was also a sense that too few people understood the technology".
