He added that it is language is also augmented reality and with the use of words, we perceive diverse things in our imaginations even if they do not exist in front of us. In his words, this use of language assists humans to interact and perceive the world in diverse ways. This is the reason, as per him, behind the continuous evolution of language and AR’s advancement.
He is of the view that the technology of augmented reality will bring revolution to the living manners of humans with the incorporation of another layer to communication via contact lenses, smart glasses, or possibly a neural interface making the idea of wearable or handheld devices redundant.
