If that doesn&#8217;t clearly explain the concept, don&#8217;t worry. AR is something better understood through demonstration. If you own a smartphone&#8211;such an iPhone&#8211;you can experience augmented reality through a variety of apps. For example, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.yelp.com\">Yelp<\/a>, an app that provides reviews of local restaurants and other businesses, features an AR mode using the iPhone camera. When activated, it uses your GPS and compass data to overlay the location of restaurants and other business on the camera image (see right).<\/p>\n<p>Pretty neat, huh? Now AR technology is making it&#8217;s way to t-shirts in a variety of applications. The WWF (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.wwf.org\/\">World Wildlife Fund<\/a>) recently did a campaign in Russia featuring AR-enabled t-shirts that simulated the wearing getting shot. Why? To raise awareness of needless poaching of wild tigers. Check the video about the campaign:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/0ZO4mkTbaj0\" width=\"560\" height=\"349\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><!--more Click here for more Augmented Reality T-Shirts...--><\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s another example.
