\"AugmentedReality-300x169\"In recent years, technological advances have led a radical change in the optimization and improvement of logistics processes, thus increasing efficiency in this area. Drones, tablets or augmented reality glasses are just some of these advances. The present article focuses on this latest technology \u2013augmented reality. More specifically, on augmented reality applied to the supply chain.<\/p>\n

Few predicted that augmented reality has something to offer to the management of the supply chain. However, its possibilities are manifold\u2026<\/p>\n

But let\u2019s start at the beginning:<\/p>\n

What is augmented reality?<\/h3>\n

Put it simply, augmented reality is nothing more than what we see viewed from a mobile device. A technology that combines real-time physical and digital information in the same space, thereby expanding the information of the elements in our environment.<\/p>\n

Augmented reality seeks to turn our physical world into an interactive and digital world. And this is precisely the difference with virtual reality, in that it does not replace reality, but it combines it with computer data expanding our perception of reality by means of images, videos and digital information through our mobile devices: smartphones, tablets or glasses like Google Glass.<\/p>\n
