Human Factors in Augmented Reality
This quiz is designed to assess your knowledge of Human Factors in Augmented Reality. Augmented Reality (AR) is a technology that superimposes a computer-generated image on a user's view of the real world, thus providing a composite view. Human Factors is the study of how humans interact with machines and systems. In the context of AR, Human Factors is concerned with how users interact with AR devices and applications.
