As a new information technology, mobile augmented reality (AR) technology has attracted more and more attention in recent years. Mobile AR uses mobile terminal, with the help of entity object recognition, obtains virtual information through calculation or in database, and superimposes virtual information on live video to realize the "enhancement" of virtual information to reality. In order to explore the application of AR technology in inhouse logistics, this paper analyses the principle and technical characteristics of AR technology. By analysing the application status of AR technology in inhouse logistics, the application advantages of AR technology in inhouse logistics are obtained. This paper summarizes 36 cases of AR technology application in inhouse logistics, summarizes and analyses the application prospect of AR technology in inhouse logistics. The functions of AR technology in the process of receiving, storage, sorting, transportation, inventory and planning are put forward. It provides theoretical guidance for the practical application of AR technology in inhouse logistics.
