You're still in your pajamas anyway. So you go online to shop for a new piece of furniture. But it's so difficult to visualize that new chair, couch or side table in your living room. Wait, there's a button that says \"Show Me\" or \"Try It In Your Space\". Suddenly, a picture of that sofa appears on your screen with the instructions to point your device where you want to \"place\" it. <\/p> Augmented reality is a fun tool.
