Optical head mounted display using augmented reality

Recently, because of the rapid development of mobile devices, augmented reality has extended from personal computers to wearable mobile devices. They are getting popular as a platform for Augmented Reality (AR) based Optical Head-Mounted Displays such as Google glass. The highly interactive nature of OHMD with its user has given rise to various wearable mobile devices, ranging from mere interaction to marketing, games, navigation, and so on. OHMD is mainly available whenever people require an informational support for a focused task. The combination of HMD and collaborative Augmented Reality into a single system makes the power of computer enhanced interaction and communication in the real world accessible anytime and everywhere.

The objectives of the proposed work include main aspects of Augmented Reality based Head-Mounted Displays for development of wearable computers. It describes the main fields in which OHMDs are developed using AR systems, current ongoing works in different firms and there future expectations from HMDs.
