# Augmented Reality

### What is Augmented Reality?

"Augmented reality" is the computer-assisted enhancement of the perception of reality. For example, information is displayed in the form of visual representations on the smartphone camera screen.&#x20;

### Application of Augmented Reality in Eliona

1. In the [asset details](https://docs.buildings.ability.abb/collection/english-v14/documentation/assets/asset-details) of every [asset ](https://docs.buildings.ability.abb/collection/english-v14/documentation/assets)in your Eliona [project](https://docs.buildings.ability.abb/collection/english-v14/documentation/systems-and-projects), an AR code can be unlocked.&#x20;
2. To unlock the AR code, click the "Augmented Reality" checkbox:

3\. The Augmented Reality code can now be downloaded in the [asset details](https://docs.buildings.ability.abb/collection/english-v14/documentation/assets/asset-details) :&#x20;

4\. The AR code is saved locally as a ".svg" file. You can now open the downloaded AR code and, if necessary, print it out. Example of an AR code:&#x20;

5\. Open the Augmented Reality function on your smartphone. You can do this either in the normal Eliona menu in the header or in SmartAssist.&#x20;

6\. To scan an AR code, place the dot in the camera view onto the AR code. You will now see the data of the corresponding [Assets ](https://docs.buildings.ability.abb/collection/english-v14/documentation/assets)on your camera screen:

### AR marker position

The positions of the different attributes can be configured in the [asset details](https://docs.buildings.ability.abb/collection/english-v14/documentation/assets/asset-details) . Follow the steps below:

1. Open the [asset details](https://docs.buildings.ability.abb/collection/english-v14/documentation/assets/asset-details) of the corresponding [Assets](https://docs.buildings.ability.abb/collection/english-v14/documentation/more-functions/broken-reference). Click in the [Asset Management](https://docs.buildings.ability.abb/collection/english-v14/documentation/assets/configure-an-asset) on the [asset](https://docs.buildings.ability.abb/collection/english-v14/documentation/assets).
2. Click on the attribute that you want to display at a specific position on the AR marker.&#x20;
3. The attribute details are displayed on the right side. Under the "Visibility" setting, you can determine the position of the AR marker:

### Example room occupancy

You have several meeting rooms in your building. You have printed out the AR code and attached it at the entrance to the room. Eliona users can scan the AR code and receive information about room occupancy or reserve the room for any desired period of time:&#x20;

### Example air quality

There is an ambiance sensor in a meeting room that measures the air quality. You attach the AR code to the sensor and, by scanning the code, you can see all data about the room's air quality on your camera screen.&#x20;
