Considering the overall situation of the current pandemic and pertinent recommendations, this book focuses on the use of Augmented Reality (AR) applications for COVID-19 outbreak along with techniques, tools and platforms to achieve social distancing and sanitization. It contains theoretical and practical knowledge of AR and remedies on how to cope with the technology including multiple use cases along with a set of recommendations. It illustrates application building using open source softwares with an interactive interface to aid the impaired users. The initial part of the book emphasizes on the basic knowledge of AR, technology, devices and rest of the relevant theories. Aimed at Researchers, students in augmented reality, technical healthcare professionals, practitioners, this book: Focusses on realization and visualization of Covid-19 pandemic using Augmented Reality (AR).Discusses how different AR Visualization techniques is implemented in different scenarios.Provides in-depth kn
