USE OF AUGMENTED REALITY FOR THE PREPARATION AND EDUCATION OF THE POPULATION

Abstract

Current technology development is an area with great development potential and it is
important to monitor this development. Results and opportunities in this area can be positively
used also in the area of education. Education in the area of safety and protection of the
population is emphasized both for professional rescuers and for the population. The
possibilities of new technologies bring the possibility of modeling and representation of
processes that would be practically impossible to implement experimentally in the process of
education. Combining education and innovative technologies has created a project that deals
with augmented reality and helps educate and motivate the public in the field of self-protection.
The article aims to point out innovative elements of augmented reality for education of
professional rescuers, general public or students especially in the field of safety.
Methodological approach is taken from general characteristics to specific case studies using
literature search, analysis and synthesis.
