Revealed world

By Tim Folger

The regular world presented to us by our five senses – you could call it reality 1.0 – is
not always the most user-friendly of places. We get lost in unfamiliar cities; we meet people
whose language we don’t understand. So why not try the improved version: augmented
reality (AR) or reality 2.0? AR technology superimposes computer-generated images on the
real world, via a mobile phone camera or special video glasses.

Early forms of AR are already here. With the right downloads, smartphones can
deliver information about nearby ATMs and restaurants, and other points of interest. But
that’s just the beginning. A few years from now the quantity of information available will
have increased enormously. You will not only see that there’s a Chinese restaurant on the
next block, but you will also be able to see the menu and prices, read reviews of it, and even
find out how busy it is at the time.

This is where the next revolution in computing will take place: not in ever-more
sophisticated games that exist in a virtual reality world, but rather in the interface between the
real world and the information brought to us via the Internet. Imagine bubbles floating before
your eyes, filled with cool information about anything and everything that you see in front of
you. Information overload? Perhaps not.

Let’s jump ahead to ten years from now. A person trying to fix their car won’t be
looking at a repair manual online or a book with illustrations; they will be wearing a device
that projects animated 3-D computer graphics onto the equipment under repair, labeling parts
and giving step-by-step guidance. Such technology is already being used by trainee
mechanics in the US marines.

The window onto the AR world can be a smartphone or special video glasses that
look like wraparound sunglasses. But in ten years’ time, these will have been replaced by
contact lenses etched with tiny LEDs, which display text and images at a readable distance in
front of the eye. So a deaf person wearing these inconspicuous lenses will be able to see a
real-time transcript of what people are saying as they speak.

The question is: while we are all absorbed in our new augmented reality worlds, how
will we be interacting with each other?
 Good morning everybody, first of all I would like to say thank you to all of you that
have attend today’s discussion. Let us introduce our group, Annan Fayusaurada, Bintang Terang
Putra Utama Purba, Eunike Siahaan, Fransiska, Merisa Abigail Yuliana Sirait, Risky Aditya Dwitama
Selian, and Syella Patricia Nainggolan. We are from Group 4

In this presentation we will discuss about story entitled " REVEALED WORLD."

5W + 1H

1. Who :
Who is already use the technology? Based on the last sentence of paragraph 4,
such technology is already being used by trainee in the US marines

2. What :
What is the technology called ? It’s called AR or Augmented Technology

3. Why :
Why is the technology called AR?
Based on paragraph 1, AR is technology superimposes computer-generated
images on the real world, via a mobile phone camera or special video glasses.

4. When :

When do they predict the technology to be more advanced? According to the text
on paragraph 5, in ten years from now

5. Where :

Where the next revolution in computing will take place? Based on Paragraph 3,
the next revolution will take place via internet

6. How :

How will AR help people ? Based on paragraph 2 it providing what nowadays

people need, for example we you will also be able to see the menu and prices, read
reviews of it, and even find out how busy it is at the time.
EACH PARAGRAPH IDEA

1. The idea of paragraph 1 is " Our five senses is not always user-friendly places".
the evidence is presented by the first sentence
2. The idea of paragraph 2 is “ With the right downloads, smartphones can deliver
information about nearby ATMs and restaurants, and other points of interest” the
( evidence is presented by the second sentence )
3. The ide of paragrap 3 is "the next revolution of computing is interface via the
internet ( the evidence is presented by the first sentence)
4. The idea of paragraph 4 is that they will be wearing a device projects animated 3-
D computer graphics into the equipment under repair ( the evidence is presented
by the first sentence )
5. The idea of paragraph 5 is AR world will have been replaced by contact lenses
etched with tiny LEDs ( the evidence is presented by the second sentence )

The main idea of the reading text is: The developed technology called AR that helped
people's lives.

The sentences that support the answer are: "You will not only see that there’s a
Chinese restaurant on the next block, but you will also be able to see the menu and
prices, read reviews of it, and even find out how busy it is at the time." You can see it
through your smartphone. Also you can see it in the 5th paragraph.
