An application of augmented reality (AR) for virtual labs is implemented. The emphasis is to demonstrate the use of different buttons and knobs of a Cathode Ray Oscilloscope (CRO) using an application Unity 3D which will make it easier for the students to get a better understanding of the CRO and its working. Using Vuforia engine, which is used to create AR applications in Unity 3D, an application is created which takes the picture of a CRO and superimposes the description of different knobs and buttons present on it. The AR camera does this by detecting specific features of the image. Realizing the impact of a stable and flexible AR virtual lab on the present education system, a more relevant application has been introduced in this paper.
