Approximately a decade ago I wrote “The other side of the robotics coin is called ‘augmented reality’. AR is about providing people with more (or more relevant) information than what their senses naturally produce, generally in some highly specific context. An AR system might be used to guide a surgeon’s hand, coach a repairman, superimpose radar data over a pilot’s view, guide a taxi driver through an unfamiliar neighborhood, help a fireman locate the safest path through a burning building, or help an unskilled worker accomplish a complicated assembly task.” As it turns out, physical augmentation is at least as important as AR, or maybe it’s just an easier problem.
