Pages 453 - 457
Abstract
Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly being integrated into core business strategies for cognitive advancement. AI and its allied applications are impacting the function of all disciplines, processes and the fellow professionals in emerging business ecosystem today. It has transformed the way an enterprise work and how it exploits new technology and business avenues improving the quality of solutions in field support. This in turn, has also built an ecosystem right from the design, construction of system application and managing it through virtual interface. This study aims to uncover strategic imperatives of AI and productive impact of corresponding AR (Augmentative Reality) technologies with the help of a case-study of an IT (information-technology) firm. In this paper, the author explores the conceptual as well as application competence of AR by thoroughly examining the literature, contemporary trends and innovative applications.
