Atlas of Aviation with Augmented Reality

One of the most important areas of human activity, where only the most advanced technologies and the latest innovations are applied, is the aerospace industry. This was also the case during the construction of the first flying machines over a... hundred years ago, but back then, it is clear, technological development was incomparable to modern times. At the dawn of aviation, flying machines were unreliable and sometimes even clumsy, and flights were associated with enormous risk. Nevertheless, the aviation pioneers, who sincerely believed in its great future, were not deterred by the dangers. As a result of the titanic efforts of engineers, designers, and test pilots, aircraft have evolved from plywood biplanes to super-modern airplanes and unmanned aerial vehicles, where all systems are controlled and managed by computers, and the presence of a pilot on board is sometimes not even necessary. Not to mention military aviation technology — the tactical and technical characteristics of today's fighters, attack aircraft, bombers, assault helicopters, and UAVs are simply mind-blowing. You can trace the path of aviation from the first flights of enthusiasts on "cardboard" machines to spacious airliners and stealth radar fighters in the pages of this book, and thanks to the use of augmented reality technology, you will have the opportunity to examine aircraft in all details in three-dimensional imagery. In addition, the study of flying technology in 4D visualization is accompanied by informative audio recordings, which you can listen to learn a lot of new information about the design features and specific applications of each type of aircraft.
