A Brief History Of Augmented Reality

https://medium.com/@LUCYDLTD/a-brief-history-of-augmented-reality-234f4ab8ac05



If we take a look at the past, we can see that the first working AR system that truly created a full experience came about in the early 90s. This was known as the infamous Virtual Fixtures system made for the United States Air Force back in 1992.

Aside from that, Augmented Reality was primarily used in entertainment and gaming. That said, as technology advances (both hardware and software), other industries are joining in.

Now that mobile phones have proliferated every facet of life, it’s common for people to claim that VR/AR is the next frontier. Augmented Reality hardware has been virtually non-existent (no pun intended) for the past several years.

The only thing that’s come close has been the short-lived Google Glass.

A hugely unpopular product, Google Glass had the unfortunate luck of being both ahead of its time and also severely under-supported by Google. While it had tremendous potential, it wasn’t until the advent of blockchain technology that the prospect of AR glasses became an attractive proposition again.

Lucyd’s glasses act also as a wallet, enabling users to send and receive transactions — much like other cryptocurrency wallets.

With 75% of smartphone users requiring prescription eyewear, the market for Augmented Reality eyewear is huge. While we don’t expect wearable tech to completely replace smartphones, we are confident that the every-day usability of eyeglasses combined with the advantages of Augmented Reality will create a busy marketplace for both developers and users.

That was quite informative, it's always good to learn more about such interesting things as AR.
Thank you!

Three Additional Industries That Augmented Reality Will Disrupt

Here at Lucyd, we’re obsessed with Augmented Reality. While this revolutionary technology still doesn’t have the mainstream exposure, we know that it’s going to be huge. The massive potential for enterprise applications is what sets AR apart from its older brother, Virtual Reality.

But what are some of the specific enterprise uses for AR? https://medium.com/@LUCYDLTD/three-additional-industries-that-augmented-reality-will-disrupt-323913168fd0

[Lucyd]

Just interested where are you guys based?

We are based on Singapore but our team is international

[Lucyd]

I looked up your website and found the project interesting. What are the payments methods appropriate?

Ur project is superb but from my point of view it needs more promoting
What are the next event are u going to participate?
It will be helpful in the way of spreading the word about project

So far we have attended Blockchain Expo North America, Cryptocurrency World Expo, LATAM Bitocin & Blockchain Conference, CoinAgenda Summit, World Crypto Economic Forum, The North American Bitcoin Conference, Blockchain Week London, ICO London & Amsterdam, and d10e Cayman Islands. There is 1 more upcoming conference on February 15-16 th -- The Blockchain Event Fort Lauderdale, if you are around come and meet us!

[gastlator]

This project is one of the best IcO for the beginning of this year, the team here is also spotless, no reason not to trust them from my point of view!

[GEOmile]

the idea is certainly grandiose, you want to immediately unite so many spheres of activity that it looks tempting.
but I think it will be quite difficult to do, I will follow the development of your project, I hope you will succeed

[Grotilar]

When shall we be able to receive the token after the purchase?

[OBMemo]

Just curious what was the inspiration for the name of the project?

[Chermander]

How much money do you plan to collect through the ICO? What will the money be used for?

[FranzyFox]

Hi, your project looks legit, I'm really interested. I want to invest and have a question. How long does each transaction usually take to complete ? When could I see LCD in my wallet?

[ticulves]

Nice project, I'm a fan of AR tech. Have you already reached your softcap?

[recnapon]

Your project will surely gets a lot of investors and supporters because it is unique and I am sure many people will be interested to be part of it. By the way, is there any plan to give airdrops and campaign bounties?

[TrePexen]

It seems very cool and interesting with good concept, I like your project. Wish you great success and good luck!

[Lucyd]
