When the Saipan system was popular in the early years, there were already augmented reality games like "cannons and mosquitoes", Nokia-based "city kaleidoscopes" and other location-based and AR-based applications, but these AR games or applications did not really catch the pain of users. The AR-enabled smart glasses launched by Google in 2012 failed to attract mass consumers because of its high price and complicated operation. It was suspended after three years of persistence.

In contrast, an AR with a realistic scenario may be more advantageous—it's obviously easier to implement, such as the virtual world interacting with the real world on a mobile phone screen without any additional equipment.

Researchers in the VR/AR industry said: "Smartphones are hardware platforms that can easily implement AR effects, while VR requires redesign of hardware. This also means that at the technical or software level, we will welcome AR applications. Spring."
