The prospect is worth looking forward to. According to Forward-looking Industry Research Institute's "China Augmented Reality (AR) Industry Development Prospect Forecast and Investment Strategic Planning Analysis Report", augmented reality is a man-machine interaction technology with wide span and strong pertinence. Several application cases show that AR educational games have the functions of providing situations, supporting cooperation and promoting autonomous learning.

As an important field in the development of virtual reality technology, the emergence of augmented reality has improved and expanded the existing cognitive field and knowledge structure of human beings, changed the traditional concept of time and space, and provided an important cognitive tool for exploring the scientific knowledge of the surrounding world. Augmented reality has rich teaching characteristics such as cognition, breakthrough in time and space, real-time interaction and so on, which will make it get more attention and promotion in mobile application development.

At present, many enterprises in China have set foot in AR education, but most of them are early childhood education. AR technology can superimpose virtual information into the real world, turn boring knowledge in teaching into vivid images, improve students' interest and make them study better. Special geography and landforms, historical figures and events, and things that are not easily accessible can all be presented to students through AR technology.
