Augmented Reality (AR) is the next big technical experience paving the way for emerging trends in Healthcare applications. In the simplest sense, AR technology could be a “combination of a real scene viewed by a user and a virtual scene generated by a computer that augments the scene with additional information.

This capability to augment additional information offers huge potential in digital Healthcare space.

  • Patients who are educated through simulation about their medical conditions using apps.
  • A nurse who views a perfect highlighted image of the patient’s veins so the IV can be inserted in one painless attempt.
