>AR has been around since 1990. VR decades before so times ticking on what a fad is and you have to make a case why this decade AR will start?

By that metric, we had smartphones at least since the early 90s. They didn't make any significant impact on the world at all until at least late 00s. And now, look at the world we live in these days.

>Your case why in a decade we want AR which is a overlayed response and a camera that can analyse the world using real technology. What will it do?

Everything a smartphone can do, but in a much more seamless, unobtrusive, and superior way, as well as many many other things that we cannot even think of now. If you think a tech that can completely supplant smartphones (as well as offer many more things that smartphones cannot do) isn't gonna be desired by people in the future, then I think there isn't much one can say to convince you otherwise.
