Abstract

The evolution of the educational environment requires constant adaptation to emerging technological trends. Within this transformation, conventional teaching tools, such as traditional whiteboards, are gradually being replaced by digital resources like projectors and interactive whiteboards, which enhance student engagement and interaction with learning materials. This paper explores the integration of Augmented Reality (AR) as an instructional resource in the context of Mechanical Engineering education. The study addresses a common challenge faced by students: the difficulty in comprehending three-dimensional structures when presented in twodimensional formats. To investigate this, a bibliographic review of academic literature was conducted to map current findings and approaches in this field. The review highlights that incorporating AR into the classroom is feasible and beneficial, provided that educators receive adequate training to effectively facilitate its use. The findings suggest that AR can enrich the learning experience in Mechanical Engineering by fostering deeper conceptual understanding and offering a practical, applicable solution for enhancing education through immersive technology.
