Augmented reality and Lisa Ann - Sexual Intrigue (2008)virtual reality are still in their infancy in terms of non-gaming applications, but a new tip hints that Amazon may be about to change all that.
We already know that Amazon is keen to go wide with brick-and-mortar bookstores and grocery stores, but a new report from the New York Timessays the e-tailer is looking at doing the same with appliances and furniture.

That's right, after using the hammer of ecommerce to slow roast the competition, it's increasingly looking like Amazon is determined to take over the physical retail world it appeared to shun so many years ago.
Part of the appliance and furniture store strategy, according to the report, would use AR and VR technology to help consumers make purchase decisions by showing them what products would look like in their homes.
Virtual spaces are already alive in some Lowe's stores in the U.S., using what the company calls its "Holoroom How To" set-ups. The display uses an HTC Vive to show customers how to use its products for home improvement projects.
Lowe's is also way ahead with AR, recently showing off an app that uses AR to help you navigate your way through its stores.
Have these innovations dramatically changed the Lowe's customer experience or retail advantage? It's hard to say, but being early to the two technology platforms puts the retail chain in a good position to compete with anything Amazon rolls out.
And that's important, because if Amazon doesmove into the homewares brick and mortar market, Lowe's will face the biggest fight its ever had.
