[[Object recognition]] , as part of [[computer vision]], is an important feature in both [[Augmented reality]] and [[virtual reality]]. [[AR]] uses object recognition to deliver contextually aware information and multimedia. In [[VR]], many systems such as [[Chaperone]] of [[SteamVR]] are designed in such a way that they are aware of their surroundings, which is essential for safe operation. As VR and AR technologies become more mainstream, we will see a dramatic improvement in object detection and recognition. These improvements will have to overcome, among many other things, varying lighting conditions, changes in shape and size, and work fast enough to be usable in everyday situations.
