AR has great potential to affect the learning experience. Developments in AR technology have motivated the researchers to develop applications using hardware, software and the authoring of content. A summary of the main findings of this chapter are as follows: Published surveys show that AR in education has progressively increased year by year intensively and mainly in the last 8 years. AR has been mostly applied in professional education as well as higher education. Location-based AR along with marker-based AR is very widely used.
