What the Heck is AR?
Imagine this: you put on a pair of glasses, and BOOM! Suddenly, the real world gets an upgrade. You see digital stuff like holograms, 3D models, and virtual info right in front of you. It's like having a genie in a bottle, but instead of wishes, you get awesome visual experiences. That's AR, short for Augmented Reality. It's a mix of real-world and computer-generated awesomeness. No more squinting at tiny screens, gramps!
