1. Executive Summary
Purpose of this report is guiding XYZ University for adopting Augmented Reality
systems in their teaching style. Augmented Reality is a technology in which real images are
superimposed and it is beneficial for different things, such as education, medical science,
gaming, and engineering. It started from 1901. However, it had so many issues that time. Now, it
is providing helps in different processes of many areas. This report will discuss about the role of
Augmented Reality in different fields. It is based on the XYZ University upgradation in their
teaching style. It will explain about opportunities and issues of Augmented Reality in education
field.
Augmented Reality is now having proper security for using it in different applications. It
is ethical to use for education, medical, retail and gaming. This report will conclude that AR
systems will provide benefits to XYZ University in upcoming time.
This report will explain advantages and disadvantages of Augmented Reality for XYZ
University. It will also provide recommendation for XYZ University for using of Augmented
Reality devices in thier teaching methods, which will increases enrollments numbers in their
postgraduate and graduate programs. It will make reputation of university globally.

2. Introduction
Augmented Reality (AR) is a way to make things better in understanding for different
purposes. It is computer technology, which provides different views of real things in a mobile
device. This technology enhances real view of any content in real and it uses superimposing
computer systems. These computer generated visual objects are looks same as in real time. It can
be animation, image and video. It has existed for quite some time. Many organizations and
researchers are having huge interest in the AR. It is an evolving technology in the field of
computer science. From last two decades, it is famous for animation and 3D pictures in different
areas. Augmented Reality is having different features and it can be useful for different purposes
in different areas, such as gaming, travel, medical field, tourism industry, manufacturing,
education, business, engineering and many others (Akçayır & Akçayır, 2017).
Augmented Reality is having different applications, which can be beneficial for teaching
methods. This report will explain about the Augmented Reality in different fields with the
examples. XYZ University is facing admission problem and AR will changes it with new styles
of teaching and marketing of it. It will describe about applications of Augmented Reality in the
Education industry in next sections of this report. Augmented Reality is having many advantages
as well as disadvantages in few areas. This report will explain about advantages and
disadvantages of AR in respect of XYZ University with ethics and security issues of it in the
later section.
3. Augmented Reality
Augmented Reality is beneficial for business processes as per the business experts for
customer’s attraction. Smart phones are one of best advantage for business purpose, which is
easily available and it is provide features of AR. It is a best way to install application in the
mobile phones and used it for shopping of cloths without wearing it. It provides an estimated
view for your furniture before buying it. However, it is facing so many challenges. It has skill
shortage for designing business model, according to the business leaders. Augmented Reality is
also having few issues related to ethics and security, which need to be looked into AR (Andujar,
Mejías, & Márquez, 2011).
