     In Augmented Reality (AR) , virtual world can be accessed without any isolation from the real     world. This technology can be easily used with a smartphone or augmented reality glasses  Microsoft hololens. Here module augments are rendered from the original frame which are then overlapped with the real world with 3D orientation. AR technology can end the requirement for screens. Tech giants all over the world are trying to develop eye lens integrated with AR. Today AR is used mainly in gaming industry, google lens and also in Instagram and Snapchat. Microsoft Hololens 2 is a very advanced augmented reality headset which costs around 3500$ . It uses a combination of very powerful lens system and sensors. It will be used in complicated surgeries like the ones in brains , difficult architectural projects and constructions and also in repair of various machines like planes and car engines. Since these works requires a lot of precision and visualization, these technology will make t

 Last week a university in Melbourne successfully ran human trials for the bionic eye technology. In today's world prosthetics are becoming a common thing. Prosthetic arms and legs have proved very useful in improving the lives of people who are born with birth defects or lose a body part in an accident.    Back in 2019 a US-based company successfully created the bionic eye or gennaris bionic vision system. This technology was on the next level as for the first time it was successfully helping blind people to see and differentiate between lightness and darkness. it works by bypassing the damaged optic nerves and allows the retina to transmit signals. Four 9mm tiles are implanted in the brain which receives these signals. This technology is very revolutionary as it can eradicate blindness permanently. Today's prosthetics work with the help of an external computer device that receives signals from muscles and causes movement as per requirement. Though this works fine it is quite

 Isro is undoubtedly one of the greatest space research organisations out there. It has achieved some remarkable feet in the past few decades. Still, they haven't sent humans to space yet. In today's space game, human space exploration is very important. Many aspiring astronauts leave the country as Isro didn't send humans for missions. Though we have remarkable Indian astronauts like Sunita Williams and Kalpana Chawla, but they were sent by NASA and Rakesh Sharma, the first Indian to be ever sent to space was also sent on a Russian rocket. But finally with the Gaganyaan Mission, for the first time, 3 Indians including a woman will be sent to space on Indian spacecraft. So, Gaganyaan will be a 5-7 days mission where the orbital module will be sent to lower earth orbit on the GSLV-Mk III Rocket. The orbital module consists of a service module that has two kinds of liquid propellant engines and thrusters. it also has some storage space. The other part is the crew module which
