Augmented reality is changing the way we see the world – literally.

Remember this life-like billboard from Back to the Future? For many of us, that was our first exposure to augmented reality technology. Of course, it wasn't called that in 1989. In fact, the term was coined a year later in 1990 by Thomas P Caudell of Boeing.

It has taken quite some time for mixed reality to get its start. However, as mobile hardware and software have become more advanced in recent years we're starting to see this digital trend take off in many different industries.
