Augmented reality (AR) has long sounded like a wild, futuristic concept, but the technology has been around for years. AR is all about superimposing computer-generated images on top of your view of reality, thus creating a composite view that augments the real world. AR apps run the gamut from interactive map overlays and virtual showrooms to massive multiplayer skirmishes. More and more ARKit apps are rolling out on Apple's iOS, and while Google has killed off Project Tango, ARCore is the future on Android.

The available selection of augmented reality apps is diverse. Here are our top picks for the best AR apps available, whether you're searching for iOS or Android apps.

The best AR apps

There's a little artistry in everyone, but not everyone has the time to sit down and practice drawing hands for hours and hours. Why not cheat a little? SketchAR is essentially AR tracing - plot a couple of circles on a piece of paper and choose a sketch, and SketchAR will project that image onto the paper, allowing you to trace around it. It's not exactly tracing, as you'll struggle to properly match the lines perfectly, but it works very well if you're looking to practice specific drawing techniques. It can be a little awkward - holding a phone in one hand and drawing with the other is not exactly a natural position - but it's worth a try.

It works with small pieces of paper on most ARCore-capable phones. It's available for Android, iOS, and Microsoft's HoloLens headset.

Want to learn a new language, but never feel like you have the time? Mondly is one of the best ways to learn a new language, and since it's on your phone, you can learn on the go. With 33 different languages for users to pick from and daily exercises to keep you learning, you'll be chatting in a different language in no time at all.

Mondly hasn't been slow to adopt new tech. There's a VR version of the app for the Gear VR - and more excitingly - AR tech is built into the main app. Tap the AR button, and you'll be asked to find a flat surface like a floor. Once that's detected, the app will ask you to plonk down your AR teacher, and she'll then begin your lesson, bringing in examples of the words as a memory aid. While it may not be something you engage in every day, the AR side of Mondly is a fun little addition that can shake up your language-learning experience. Mondly's AR is currently available only on the Android version of the app, but the company promises it'll have the iOS version up and running very soon.

It wouldn't be a list of the best AR apps without mentioning Niantic's Pokémon Go, a game that has quickly captured everyone's attention and given them a reason to go out into the world, walk around, and catch Pokémon. The game uses GPS to mark your location and move your in-game avatar, while your smartphone camera is used to show Pokémon in the real world. For the most part, it works, provided the game hasn't crashed or frozen. There aren't a lot of instructions when you first start, or information regarding game mechanics like the colored rings around wild Pokémon, but thanks to the nature of the internet, figuring out what to do isn't that tough.

Players of Ingress, another Niantic creation, will see many similarities between the developer's two games, right down to the locations marked as Pokéstops and gyms. So far the game has received multiple updates, and hundreds of new Pokémon have been added. Niantic is set to continue updating the game to improve its performance and add new features, so we imagine Pokémon Go will stick around for a good, long while.

Ink Hunter is the app you should use when deciding on a tattoo and where to put it. The app lets you try out premade tattoos, as well as your own designs, and they can be oriented in whatever position you like and placed on any part of the body. Tattoos placed on the body using the camera look as close to real life as you're going to get - without actually going under the needle that is - and that's all thanks to the in-app editor and the way Ink Hunter renders tattoos. The app previously only supported black-and-white tattoos, but its latest update added support for color tattoos as well, meaning you can get a better picture of what the design will look like before you make it permanent.

WallaMe lets you leave hidden messages in various locations around the world that can only be read by other people using the WallaMe app. When using the app, you can take a picture of a nearby wall, street, or sign, then use the in-app drawing and painting tools to create your own special messages. You can also attach pictures to the areas you've chosen, if only to prove you were actually there. The augmented reality really comes into play when you're in a location that has a hidden message, but it can only be found by using WallaMe and your device's camera. Messages can be made private, too, so that only friends using the app can see them, or they can be made public for everyone to discover.

WallaMe's biggest strength also works against it, in a way. Those who aren't aware of the app's existence, or those who don't regularly use it, may never see the clever messages created by others. But fans of the app may want to keep it that way, in order to maintain the feel of exclusivity.

Google Translate isn't strictly an AR app, but it does have one AR feature that's incredibly useful for translating text. That particular feature is part of the app's camera mode. Simply snap a photo of the text you don't understand, and the app will translate the text in your photo in real time. When connected to Wi-Fi, the app supports a vast number of languages, but users can also download a number of language packs if they want to continue using the instant translation feature while offline or without a cellular connection. Next time you take a trip to a country with a language you aren't fluent in, Google Translate could be your best friend and the only thing that will keep you from getting lost in a strange land.

Amikasa helps you style your room and figure out your desired layout before you ever buy a piece of furniture. Using your iPhone or iPad's camera, you can easily walk around your bedroom, kitchen, work office, or any other room you decide to furnish, and place 3D models of various items to see how they look, or to discover their ideal placement. This includes the ability to tweak the color, because maybe that cherry red chair suits the room better than the peach. The app uses name-brand items, which you can buy while using Amikasa, and if you're ever unsure of your own style, your augmented rooms can be shared with friends and family through the app. The most recent update also added more kitchen faucets, cabinets, burners, and wallpapers, giving you even more options to design your perfect room.

Unfortunately, there's no Android version available yet, but the IKEA Catalog and Overstock apps can offer similar functionality.

6 Exciting AR Apps for Student Learning

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Augmented reality (AR) can serve a variety of purposes in your classroom. This exciting technology layers virtual content on top of the real world, providing an opportunity for students to interact with content in a completely new way.

It's important to think of augmented reality as more than just a gimmick. Sure, it grabs students' attention, but you want to make sure that it also sustains meaningful learning. I've written a new book all about using scannable technology for deeper learning, and it is a topic that connects to multiple learning environments. Moving beyond the gotcha factor is doable and necessary!

1. Quiver

Formerly known as ColAR, Quiver is a fantastic, easy-to-use, augmented reality app. Like many AR apps, after downloading it on your device, you'll have to visit that company's website to download trigger images. The Quiver trigger images that you scan activate the AR experience. Quiver uses coloring pages as triggers, and this video shows it in action. The app has a set of coloring pages that make cells pop off the page and let children spin a globe in midair. Quiver lets students go beyond the pictures in their textbooks to interact with three-dimensional figures.

2. Elements 4D

DAQRI, a terrific AR developer, has produced a handful of apps that you'll want to check out. One of my favorites is their educational app Elements 4D. This app lets students combine different elements to see chemistry in action. Teachers can print out and assemble blocks that become trigger images for an AR experience. DAQRI's website also includes lesson plans for using Elements 4D with elementary, middle, and high school students.

3. Blippar

Blippar is an AR creation tool that has been integrated with different educational experiences. One of my favorites is how Blippar is used with Brainspace magazine. You can scan the Brainspace cover and inside pages to connect with interactive content that brings the two-dimensional presentation to life. It can completely transform a child's reading experience by pushing him or her to think more deeply and explore a topic in a new way.

4. Arloon Plants

The team at Arloon has produced a handful of augmented reality apps. I especially like Arloon Plants. With this app, students can explore interactive plants to learn about structure and parts. Using the Arloon trigger, students can even watch a plant grow and move in an AR experience. This video on their website shows off some of the features that can help students wrap their heads around foundational science concepts when growing plants in your classroom isn't an option.

5. Aurasma

Aurasma is a popular tool for creating and exploring AR experiences. The Aurasma app works with triggers that teachers and students create on the web with Aurasma Studio. Users can upload trigger images of their choice and add videos to make their very own augmented reality experience. In a recent post on scannable technology, I discussed how QR codes (and augmented reality) can be used to share student work. Aurasma is one great option for making this happen.

6. Math alive

I had a chance to meet the folks at Alive Studios when presenting on scannable technology this year at FETC. They showed off some of their super-cool AR products including Math alive, which is designed for PreK-3 students. Math alive uses AR software downloaded to a computer, a camera, and special cards. Students and teachers place the trigger cards under a camera to practice counting and basic numeracy skills. A video overview on their site shows Math alive in action.

When you decide to bring augmented reality into your classroom, make sure that you're putting the learning first. Also be sure that the activities connect to your learning objective and that you've tried out the technology before introducing it to your students. Augmented reality can elevate learning experiences and energize everyday lessons!

Augmented Reality (AR) is a growing field of technology where real life is modified and enhanced by computer-generated sights and sounds.

The most common use of AR can be seen through mobile apps. Point your device's camera at something that the app recognizes, and it will generate a 3D animation or video superimposed over whatever is on your camera's screen. The effect makes the computer-generated item appear like it's really there.

App developers are building AR apps for fun, educational, and commercial uses.
